  • The SuperStitch is a suture-based closure device for the use during minimally invasive surgical procedures. The aim is to close a vessel or wound site in an open setting. The project is dealing with the further development of an already proven product pf the HeartStitch company. In the process, adaptation and fining solutions based on new requirements are discussed. These aim to perform surgery in the area of the human heart. The new field of application is mostly meant to deal with the closure of PFO's, ASD II and occurring residual shunts.
