SADDLE BROOK, N.J. (April 30, 2010) – CircuLite®, Inc. will be participating at the 6th International Conference of the Pediatric Mechanical Circulatory Support Systems & Pediatric Cardiopulmonary Perfusion being held May 6 - 8, 2010 in Boston, Massachusetts with a booth featuring it’s Synergy® Pocket Micro-pump. Synergy is the first micro-pump designed for long-term, partial circulatory support to improve the quality of life for a broad range of chronic heart failure patients.

Dr. Jon Wu will be presenting the abstract ‘Feasibility of CircuLite’s Circulatory Support System in Children’ in Plenary Session #4 on May 8, 2010 at 8:00am.

A company representative will be available at the CircuLite booth to demonstrate and answer questions about the Synergy technology.

Should you wish to schedule a meeting with a representative from CircuLite at the meeting, please contact Lisa Berardo at +1 551 404-1565 or lberardo@circulite.net.

About Synergy®
The Synergy® Pocket Micro-pump represents a new approach to mechanical circulatory support that can transform chronic heart failure management by providing a less-invasive, elective treatment option for patients before their disease state becomes emergent. Synergy is the first implantable system designed to provide partial circulatory support (PCS) for long-term use in millions of unserved patients that have NYHA Class IIIb/early IV disease.

CircuLite’s patented micro-pump provides up to 3L/min of flow, which increases total cardiac output, offloads the heart, allowing it to rest, and potentially enables beneficial recovery of heart function. The size of a AA battery, the device is small enough to be implanted subcutaneously in a “pacemaker-like” pocket through a minimally-invasive procedure.

About CircuLite®
CircuLite is transforming heart failure treatment with the development of minimally-invasive devices for long-term partial circulatory support (PCS). By enabling a proactive and lower-risk treatment approach by supplementing a patient’s native pumping capacity, CircuLite has the potential to improve the quality of life for millions of chronic heart failure patients and their families. CircuLite’s pipeline of PCS devices is lead by the Synergy® Pocket Micro-pump, the world’s smallest implantable blood pump currently in a CE Mark clinical trial. Next-generation Synergy micro-pumps include an endovascular system, a fully-implantable system and a pediatric system. The development of the pediatric system is supported by NIH grant #1R44HL096214-01. For more information on CircuLite and the Synergy Pocket Micro-pump devices, visit our website at www.CircuLite.net.
