The Optimizer® Smart Mini System

The Optimizer® system delivers CCM® therapy — the company’s proprietary technology — to the heart, providing an important treatment option for the millions of patients suffering from heart failure.

CCM® therapy is designed to significantly improve heart contraction, allowing more oxygen-rich blood to be pushed out through the body.1 CCM® therapy is indicated to improve six-minute hall walk, quality of life, and functional status of NYHA Class III HF patients who remain symptomatic despite guideline directed medical therapy, are not receiving CRT, and have a left ventricular ejection fraction ranging from 25 to 45 percent. CCM® is the brand name for cardiac contractility modulation — the non-excitatory electrical pulses delivered by the implantable Optimizer® device to improve heart contraction. CCM® therapy sends unique electrical pulses to the heart cells during the absolute refractory period. In doing so, CCM helps the heart contract more forcibly. Impulse Dynamics® has completed numerous clinical studies, including several randomized controlled trials, the results of which appeared in more than 100 publications in leading medical journals.
