“Heart failure is a complex condition that benefits from an individualized treatment paradigm, yet many of the device-based treatment options available today offer a one-size-fits-all approach,” said Paul Sorajja, MD, Roger L. and Lynn C. Headrick Family Chair of the Valve Science Center, Minneapolis Heart Institute Foundation. “Adona’s innovative shunt and sensor pairing aims to provide a more individualized management strategy and is designed so that shunt flow can be adjusted to best suit the needs of each individual patient, both initially and as their condition evolves over time. I look forward to working with the Adona team as they move into clinical use later this year.”

“Despite advancements in heart failure therapies, challenges remain that limit patient applicability and physician adoption with first-generation devices,” said Bihua Chen, Founder and Managing Member of Cormorant Asset Management. “We are pleased to lead this round as we believe Adona’s technology has the potential to disrupt the field and benefit the millions of patients suffering from heart failure.”

The Adona Medical device includes a shunt that features a flow channel with an adaptable geometry that can be made larger or smaller post-implantation via the use of a proprietary induction catheter. In addition, the implantable device features integrated sensors designed to capture pressure readings from both the left and right atria multiple times per day without requiring patient interaction. These daily readings can provide physicians with a more complete understanding of a patient’s hemodynamic status and can augment shunt therapy by enabling more informed medical management. Heart failure is a progressive condition that impacts approximately 6.5 million patients in the United States and as many as 26 million patients globally.1
