Prix Galien selected the 18 most innovative medical devices in 2021. The selection criteria are as usual. The nominee must be approved by the FDA for marketing within five years and show great potential in improving human health. Another thing worthy of respect for the selection committee is that all nominated products never consider their sales in the market. The selection committee only pays attention to the impact of the product on science and health. This is why Prix Galien is worthy of respect and trust.
Prix Galien selected 18 innovative medical device products as in previous years, covering fields from cardiovascular to ophthalmology, from passive to active. It is a pity that this year, the global medical device boss and second child are not visible in the Prix Galien 2021 nomination list. Last year, the boss HeartWare HVAD was also nominated (it can be said that Prix Galien judges have rarely missed their eyes in recent years). Two-thirds of this year's nominees are also selected for Prix Galien 2020, and many of them are regular customers of MedTF.
The final winner of Prix Galien 2021 will be announced in October. The final winner last year was Abbott’s MitraClip.
Next, MedTF will introduce to everyone one by one the final selected 18 latest products.
01
AcrySof IQ PanOptix
AcrySof IQ PanOptix is developed by Alcon and is used for patients who are undergoing cataract surgery and require a single lens to improve near, moderate, and far vision needs.
AcrySof IQ PanOptix intraocular lens is the first trifocal intraocular lens approved by the FDA. It has become a new type of three-focus intraocular lens based on the four-focus design through the proprietary ENLIGHTEN "Energy" optical technology. It optimizes the middle-distance vision while ensuring the needs of near and far vision, and truly realizes the distance and middle vision. , Near full vision, can help cataract patients to solve the problem of looking far (such as walking, traveling), fancy (such as eating, watching the computer, doing housework), looking close (such as reading, reading the newspaper, looking at the mobile phone, etc.) problems Mirror rate!
AcrySof IQ PanOptix adopts a unique optical design, which enables it to have a light energy utilization rate of 88%, which is currently unattainable in all three-focus intraocular lenses. It provides a strong guarantee for clear vision after surgery! Clinical surveys abroad showed that patient satisfaction reached 96.6%.
AcrySof IQ PanOptix relies on its high clinical effect and high satisfaction. Bringing light to millions of cataract patients, and being selected as Prix Galien 2021 is right.
02
JUVÉDERM VOLUMA XC
JUVÉDERM VOLUMA XC was developed by Allergan. Last year Allergan joined the AbbVie family for $63 billion. JUVÉDERM VOLUMA XC is also indispensable for making Allergan so valuable.
JUVÉDERM VOLUMA XC is a medical beauty product. MedTF seldom paid attention to medical beauty before. But medical aesthetics is a big market with hundreds of billions of dollars, which should not be underestimated, even though it is a mixed bag. However, JUVÉDERM VOLUMA XC has completely established a benchmark in this field, unlike some products that are only for "money" and have no actual value.
JUVÉDERM VOLUMA is the first hyaluronic acid (not) dermal filler approved by the FDA to be used safely and effectively in people of color. JUVÉDERM VOLUMA XC is a viscous gel made of cross-linked hyaluronic acid suspended in a phosphate buffer containing 0.3% lindocaine. It is the first dermal filling gel approved in the United States for deep (subcutaneous and/or periosteum) injections to fill the cheeks to improve age-related facial volume loss.
Most doctors believe that JUVÉDERM VOLUMA XC is better for injection, less painful for customers, softer to the touch after being injected into the skin, and easier to fuse with skin tissues.
Since little is known about beauty products, it is difficult to truly understand the value of JUVÉDERM VOLUMA XC for health and science.
03
PureWick
PureWick is developed by BD. BD and Poco are the biggest winners this year. Both products are selected for Prix Galien 2021.
PureWick consists of two parts: Female External Catheter and Urine Collection System. PureWick allows female patients to perform simple, non-invasive urine output management. The Female External Catheter sucks urine from the patient's body, and finally sucks it into the Urine Collection System. The emergence of PureWick gives patients with urinary incontinence a new choice.
PureWick has been selected by more than 2,000 hospitals and rehabilitation institutions since 2016, and a large number of PureWick has been purchased by patients to use at home. Thereby, the embarrassment of urine outflow during sleep is solved.
04
Venovo
Venovo is derived from BD and is specially designed for venous surgery, aiming to solve venous disease.
For Venovo, it is a double happiness. It has just been approved by the NMPA a few months ago and is now selected for Prix Galien 2021.
The Venovo composite platform pattern design has both high flexibility and strong radial support. It is more suitable for iliac veins under compression, maintaining long-term patency of the blood vessels, and being able to conform to the tortuous veins and blood vessels to improve the patient’s Long-term healing effect.
At the same time, the flared design of the Venovo head end helps the stent better adhere to the blood vessel without being easily displaced, and has a highly visible tantalum mark to help the doctor accurately position the stent in the patient's body.
Venovo clinical studies have shown its excellent clinical effects. Among the 24-month NIVL patients, the first-stage vascular patency rate reached 95.2%, and among PTS patients, the 24-month first-stage patency rate reached 73.4%.
The high patency rate is also the reason why Venovo was selected for Prix Galien 2021.
05

10
Barostim
Barostim is derived from CVRx
Barostim is a device that treats severe heart failure through neuromodulation. Barostim includes an implantable pulse generator (IPG), a stimulation lead and a wireless editor.
BAROSTIM NEO uses the principle of air pressure stimulation therapy to trigger its own hemodynamic regulation system.
The carotid sinus baroreceptor is the body's natural hemodynamic regulation system. Air pressure stimulation therapy activates the carotid sinus baroreceptors, allowing the body to adjust its hemodynamics and improve blood supply. In some cases, the carotid sinus baroreceptors in patients with heart failure are not functioning properly and cannot send adequate physiology to the brain. When the carotid sinus baroreceptor is activated, the stimulation signal is sent to the brain. As feedback, the brain counteracts this stimulation by sending to other parts of the body (heart, blood vessels, and kidneys) to relax blood vessels and inhibit the release of blood pressure-related hormones. The direct effect of this change is to reduce the heart's afterload, increase the cardiac output, and then reduce the heart's workload.
11
Sapien 3 Ultra transcatheter heart valve system
Sapien 3 Ultra transcatheter heart valve system is derived from Edward Sapien 3 Ultra transcatheter heart valve system for alleviating patients with symptomatic heart disease caused by severe natural calcified aortic valve stenosis.
