    I am a participant in the first trial of this device. They do not deserve a second trial because the first trial was a total failure. The words like minimally invasive is the biggest lie along with how well the device really works. The FDA is receiving my complaint towards the company after I had a heart attack during the trial. Once i had the heart attack they dropped me from the trial. If it treats damaged hearts it must also damage some. Dont be sold on this without serious consideration of the side effects they do not tell you about. Like nerve damage to your speech and swallow. I have both.
