Medtronic® Resting Heart® System

A New Way of Looking at Arrested Heart Surgery

New Vision for Arrested Hearts.

Introducing the Medtronic® Resting Heart® System. At Medtronic, we've learned that when you combine disciplined teamwork, improved extracorporeal technique, and new technology, it results in a resting heart procedure that offers all the benefits of a motionless heart and addresses the factors associated with on-pump patient morbidity. The Medtronic® Resting Heart® System offers a new approach to reducing cardiac surgery morbidity.
