AtaCor Medical, Inc. is a medical device company based in San Clemente, California, focused on cardiac pacing and rhythm management. Founded in 2014, the company has developed the AtaCor EV Temporary Pacing System, an innovative implantable system that utilizes a parasternal approach to provide temporary pacing without the need for traditional leads or hardware attached to the heart. This system introduces a pacing lead into the extracardiac tissue located between the ribs and pericardium, allowing for quick and effective restoration of cardiac rhythm in patients. AtaCor Medical aims to enhance the delivery of temporary, interim, and permanent cardiac pacing solutions in critical situations.
