Nicholas Von Bergen

Dr. Von Bergen is a pediatric and adult congenital electrophysiologist at the University of Wisconsin – Madison and a co-founder of Atrility Medical. His academic work focuses on practical steps to improve rhythm management after cardiac surgery and within the catheterization laboratory. It was from this interest that he invented the AtriAmp and co-founded Atrility Medical. The AtriAmp is the first device to provide continuous real-time atrial electrogram monitoring after heart surgery and is now being used at major pediatric and adult centers across the US. Atrility is now using this better signal to assist with improved rhythm assessment and predictive rhythm diagnostics. Through his dual roles as co-founder and academic physician, he has experience navigating the industry and academic partnership including patent protection, licensing, conflict of interest management, research partnership and successfully launching novel innovation.
