Results from the multicenter CRT‑NEXT Study show that CRT‑DX, BIOTRONIK’s 2-lead CRT-D system, is as safe and effective as conventional 3-lead CRT‑D therapy. The study confirms that most CRT candidates do not develop the need for atrial pacing in the long term and can benefit from therapy with fewer leads. Coordinating Investigator Dr. Mauro Biffi presented the novel data at the American College of Cardiology (ACC) Annual Scientific Session in New Orleans. The results have also been published online in Circulation. CRT‑NEXT is a prospective, multicenter, randomized, controlled, interventional

International BIO-LivIQ Study Will Generate Evidence for Global LivIQ Leadless Pacemaker Approvals Far-Field Sensing and AV-Synchronous Pacing Performance Will be Validated by Real World Clinical Data BIOTRONIK today announced the initiation of its global pivotal study evaluating the LivIQ leadless pacemaker system. This next-generation single‑device solution is designed to deliver atrioventricular (AV)-synchrony using advanced electrical far‑field sensing. First implantations within this study have been completed at the Kokura Memorial Hospital in Kitakyushu, Japan and the National Cerebral

Extending BIOTRONIK’s DX Technology to leadless pacing World’s first leadless pacemaker to deliver AV synchronous pacing using atrial electrical far-field signals BIOTRONIK, a global leader in cardiovascular medical technology, today announced the successful first-in-human implantations of its LivIQ leadless pacemaker system. This was part of the BIO|CONCEPT.LivIQ study, a pre‑market clinical investigation designed to evaluate the system’s preliminary safety and performance. The initial procedures were performed in Australia by Dr. Paul Gould at Princess Alexandra Hospital in Brisbane as well

BIOTRONIK, a global leader in medical technology, is marking a significant achievement at its Asia-Pacific Hub (BIOHUB) in Singapore with the production of three million cardiac rhythm management (CRM) leads. Since beginning operations in late 2017, BIOTRONIK has experienced significant growth in Singapore. Each lead manufactured in Singapore represents a critical component in cardiac rhythm therapy systems including devices such as pacemakers and implantable cardioverter defibrillators (ICDs). These leads support patients who require precise, reliable electrical signaling to maintain healthy

At the Digital Heart Summit 2025 in Berlin, 120 leading experts gathered to explore how digital innovation is reshaping cardiovascular care. Organized by BIOTRONIK, the event spotlighted the growing impact of artificial intelligence, real-world data, and patient-centric technologies in redefining diagnostics and treatment strategies. Discussions highlighted how digital tools are moving toward proactive, preventive care. For the experts, the vision is clear: by integrating AI-driven insights with patient engagement strategies, connected platforms can support informed decision-making across

This Three-Year Collaboration Aims to Deliver Scalable Health Solutions for Improved Disease Management The Initiative Hopes to Benefit Patients Particularly in Remote or Underserved Regions with Limited Access to Care SYDNEY, Australia – BIOTRONIK, a global leader in medical technology, and the University of Sydney, one of the world’s top research and teaching institutions, have signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) to jointly advance digital and connected health innovations through 2028. By combining BIOTRONIK’s expertise in implanted cardiac devices and remote monitoring with the

BIOTRONIK, a global leader in medical technology, and a pioneer in cardiovascular, endovascular, and neuromodulation solutions, today announced a strategic shift to strengthen its leadership in active implantable devices and digital healthcare. Leveraging future technologies, including artificial intelligence (AI), remote patient monitoring and connected healthcare platforms, BIOTRONIK is at the forefront of improving patient outcomes and optimizing clinical workflows. These innovations are designed to enhance the efficiency and accessibility of care, enabling healthcare providers with next

The company today announced U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) approval for Prospera™, a spinal cord stimulation (SCS) system. The system features RESONANCE™, the first and only multiphase stimulation paradigm, paired with Embrace One™, a patient-centric care model that makes proactive care possible by offering automatic, objective, daily remote monitoring and ongoing management and support. 1 This approval marks the launch of the company’s new business segment, BIOTRONIK Neuro. Millions of people all over the world suffer from chronic intractable pain, a severe, constant, and

Results from the MATRIX study show that the high detection accuracy of DX single-lead ICD systems for atrial fibrillation (AF) episodes (99.7% for ≥ 1h episodes) in combination with the strong transmission performance of BIOTRONIK Home Monitoring ® allows for reliable guideline-recommended remote monitoring of subclinical AF. The findings were published in Europace earlier this week. 1 MATRIX evaluated the utility of the DX-ICD system (atrial signal detection via a floating dipole integrated in the ICD lead) for remotely monitoring atrial high-rate episodes (AHRE) and their duration

Prof. Michael Haude, BIOMAG-I Coordinating Clinical Investigator, presented the latest results of the BIOMAG-I clinical study at the Cardiovascular Research Technologies (CRT) meeting. 1 At six months the angiographic and clinical data showed a low in-scaffold late lumen loss (LLL) rate and a good safety profile with no scaffold thrombosis. A low proportion of mal-apposed struts after implantation was observed, at six months struts were no longer discernable. The intravascular imaging documented a preservation of the scaffold area with a low mean neointimal area. Bioresorbable scaffolds have

The first implant in Europe of BIOTRONIK’s latest pacemaker and CRT-P generation was conducted in early August by Prof. Dr. Jan De Pooter at the University Hospital Ghent in Belgium. The patient who received an Amvia Sky dual chamber pacemaker device was a 68-year-old man suffering from paroxysmal AV-block strongly limiting his physical efforts. “The implantation went on straightforward and very smoothly,” commented Prof. De Pooter after the procedure. “LBBAP enables pacing in a very natural, physiological way, benefiting the patient by offering physiological pacing and minimizing the risk for
