On December 11, 2021, CH Biomedical officially launched its CH-VAD®, the implantable ventricular assist system (VAS) during the Critical Heart Disease Conference (CHDC). This milestone marks the beginning of commercialization for China’s first fully magnetically levitated VAD with complete independent intellectual property rights.
On November 24th 2021, the implantable CH-VAD® left ventricular assist system (CH-VAD® LVAS) of CH Biomedical was approved by the National Medical Products Administration (NMPA) for marketing (Registration No.: GXZZ 20213120987). CH-VAD LVAS was developed independently by CH Biomedical, it is the first Left Ventricular Assist Device (LVAD) with complete independent intellectual property rights approved by NMPA in China, and the first full magnetic levitation LVAD approved by NMPA.
From October 21 to 27, the “13th Five-Year Plan” Scientific and Technological Innovation Achievement Exhibition was held at the Beijing Exhibition Center. CH Biomedical’s CH-VAD, was showcased in the Social Development Section as a representative of China’s high-end medical devices.
