Carmat

CARMAT is a France-based medtech company that specializes in the development and manufacture of bioprosthetic artificial hearts aimed at treating patients with severe heart failure. Founded in 2008 and located in Vélizy-Villacoublay, the company produces biocompatible and auto-regulated total artificial hearts that closely mimic the human heart's functionality. These devices are designed for individuals experiencing chronic terminal heart failure classified as NYHA class IV or those suffering from acute terminal heart failure following a major heart attack. CARMAT's innovative solutions target patients who are not suitable for heart transplantation and have exhausted other treatment options, providing a reliable new therapeutic alternative. In addition to the artificial hearts, CARMAT also develops the associated power supply and control systems, including remote diagnosis capabilities.
