Let me tell you, folks, we’ve got something incredible here. We’re talking about a game-changer in the world of heart treatment. It’s called the transcatheter endocardial alginate hydrogel injection, or TEAi for short. And believe me, it’s fantastic. We used the toughest, the best – the XDROP® alginate hydrogel. And we didn’t stop there, no. We paired it with the top-of-the-line EndoWings® catheter-based system. It’s like nothing else out there.

Now, listen to this: we took nine swine, and they all underwent TEAi without a single hitch. No complications, nothing. It was perfect. And then, we took a closer look at a few of these animals, five to be exact. What we found was amazing – the catheter could reach everywhere in the heart’s left ventricle. We’re talking wide range, folks. And it didn’t just reach; it delivered the hydrogel in perfect, consecutive circles. It’s precision like you wouldn’t believe.

But wait, there’s more. After six months, we checked again. And guess what? The XDROP® was exactly where we left it, doing its job. And the heart? It was working like a dream. No bad effects on how it pumps, nothing. It’s safe, it’s effective – it’s incredible.

So, what we have here, ladies and gentlemen, is a breakthrough. This isn’t just another treatment; it’s the future. We’re overcoming barriers, making strides. With this technology, we’re going to change the game for heart patients everywhere. It’s huge.
