About NeoCare:

NeoCare is a miniature, implantable and battery free medical device designed to protect the heart of newborns and children with severe congenital heart defects by banding the pulmonary artery. The technology which uses a Swiss watch-making precision, comprises an implant coupled with an external control unit. The latter allows after implantation to remotely control and regulate the blood flow without having to open the chest. It results in shorter stays in intensive care and no-need for re-operations to adjust the banding and the flow in the pulmonary artery.
