Medsider Radio: Learn from Medical Device and Medtech Thought Leaders
In this episode of Medsider Radio, we sat down with Howard Rosen, co-Founder and CEO of Evident Vascular, a company developing an AI-powered intravascular ultrasound (IVUS) platform to improve vascular imaging and intervention. Before co-founding Evident, Howard held senior leadership roles at Intact Vascular and Vesper Medical, guiding both companies through successful acquisitions by Philips. He also served in executive roles at Haemonetics and BG Medicine, and spent over two decades at Boston Scientific, where he held a range of leadership positions across the peripheral and cardiovascular franchises.In this interview, Howard shares why launching right — not fast — is the key to success in medtech. He breaks down how Evident built early momentum by investing in deep market validation, engaging KOLs as true collaborators, and resisting scope creep at every turn. Howard also unpacks the company's deliberate regulatory strategy, using early FDA engagement as a tool to de-risk development. On the fundraising front, he explains why board composition matters more than valuation, and why strategic acquirers respond best to credibility, not cold outreach.Before we dive into the discussion, I wanted to mention a few things:First, if you're into learning from medical device and health technology founders and CEOs, and want to know when new interviews are live, head over to Medsider.com and sign up for our free newsletter.Second, if you want to peek behind the curtain of the world's most successful startups, you should consider a Medsider premium membership.

A silent danger lurks within the descending thoracic aorta. While most Type B aortic dissections are managed medically, up to half of these patients will either require life-saving surgery or die within just five years. So how do we separate those who will quietly recover from those on the edge of catastrophe? How do we protect the spinal cord, bowel, and limbs from the devastating consequences of malperfusion? Join the University of Michigan Department of Vascular Surgery as they tackle the high-stakes decisions behind managing this unpredictable disease—where timing is critical, interventions are evolving, and lives hang in the balance. Hosted by the University of Michigan Department of Vascular Surgery: · Robert Beaulieu, Program Director · Frank Davis, Assistant Professor of Surgery · Luciano Delbono, PGY-5 House Officer · Andrew Huang, PGY-4 House Officer · Carolyn Judge, PGY-2 House Officer Learning Objectives: 1. Discuss general approach to diagnosis and management of TBAD. 2. Identifying high-risk features in uncomplicated TBAD and understanding their role in determining the need for surgical management. 3. Review endovascular techniques for managing malperfusion of the limbs, viscera, and spinal cord and discuss associated decision making.

In this episode, we'll dive into the complicated topic of "Vascular Malformations of the Brain."Vascular malformations of the brain may be rare - but when they strike, the effects can be devastating. These defects in the brain's blood vessels can trigger seizures, strokes, cognitive decline, and even life-threatening hemorrhages. For patients, it's not just a medical battle - it's also a fight to protect their livelihood. And with ERISA-governed disability insurance, the odds often feel stacked against you. In this episode of Winning Isn't Easy, disability law expert Nancy L. Cavey unpacks one of the toughest areas of neurological disability claims: vascular malformations and Long-Term Disability benefits. You'll learn what these conditions are, how their unpredictable symptoms make steady employment difficult, and the common tactics insurers use to deny claims. Nancy shares proven strategies to strengthen your case - like building a detailed medical record, documenting symptom fluctuations, and avoiding traps such as “subjective condition” or mental health limitations. Whether you're newly diagnosed, appealing a denial, or just trying to understand your coverage, this episode will give you the tools to protect your rights and fight for the benefits you deserve. Because when your brain - and your future - are at stake, winning isn't easy, but it is possible with the right strategy.In this episode, we'll cover the following topics:One - What Are Vascular Malformations of the Brain?Two - Navigating ERISA Disability Claims for Vascular MalformationsThree - Strategies to Build a Strong Claim and Avoid DenialWhether you're a claimant, or simply seeking valuable insights into the disability claims landscape, this episode provides essential guidance to help you succeed in your journey.

Sébastien Gauvrit was only ten when his family let him have his first tank of guppies. Within weeks, he was hooked. “I actually had to understand genetics directly by mixing these different fish together to get the colour or fin shape I was interested in,” said the vascular biologist and genetic modelling pioneer. From his home in France, to post-doctoral work pioneering new models for vascular disease in Germany, to his current position as an assistant professor of Anatomy, Physiology and Pharmacology at the University of Saskatchewan's College of Medicine — tropical fish tanks remain a constant in Gauvrit's life. This year, two grants from the National Sciences and Engineering Research Council of Canada (NSERC) totalling $340,000 mean Dr. Gauvrit will expand the University of Saskatchewan's zebrafish aquariums — and refine his laboratory's modelling work and research on vascular development. Zebrafish are transparent in their first hours and days, which allows scientists to watch them forming vascular cells in real time. “Most genes that trigger vascular disease in humans are present in zebrafish,” Gauvrit said, noting they share 70 per cent of of their genes with humans. Using both fish and rodent models, Gauvrit will do a deeper analysis of the transcription factor HHEX [Hematopoietically Expressed Homeobox], because of its cascading effect on the cells that eventually determine lymphatic health. “If you understand how this gene regulates others, we can identify new genes involved in lymphatic disease, and understand a bit more the process behind all these events,” Gauvrit said. He's also looking at VEGF-A [vascular endothelial growth factor], a gene implicated in vascular diseases, including age-related macular degeneration [AMD]. Right now, patients with blurred vision and an overgrowth of blood vessels are treated with multiple injections to the eye, with the hope of limiting damage. “A high proportion of patients develop resistance against this therapy, which is a big issue,” Gauvrit said. “It's also very costly.” Mice die quickly without VEGF-A, but zebrafish without it survive — even thrive. Gauvrit wants to know what processes help zebrafish compensate, and where mammalian cells diverge. Gauvrit said the broader implications of vascular research will have ripple effects in treating lymphedema, strokes, and age-related macular degeneration. “We still discover new things,” Gauvrit said. “Just by serendipity and by randomness, sometimes you can find a bit greater science than when you have a very specific question.”

Episode 307 hosts Hayley Anderson (Registered Nurse from Perth, Australia) This is the 4th chapter in our mini-series called ‘Disasters & Solutions'. Here we look at some of the unusual, difficult or outright disasterous outcomes for patients caused by injectables. We speak to the injectors who managed the case and go through what happened, step by step. We'll learn about what might have been done to prevent the problem and what injectors can do in their own practice to be safer practitioners. In Chapter 4, we discuss Hayley's experience (on the other side of the needle as a patient) when she had a temple treatment with a hybrid blend of Radiesse, Belotero Revive and saline. She suffered a significant vascular occlusion and we hear about what happened, how it was managed and the lessons learned from the incident. 00:00 Introduction to Inside Aesthetics 00:46 Welcome to Chapter Four: Disasters and Solutions 01:03 Exciting News and Competitions 02:14 Introducing Today's Guest: Hayley Anderson 03:56 Hayley's Background and Journey in Aesthetics 05:11 The Vascular Occlusion 06:36 Managing the Complication: Initial Steps 08:40 In-Depth Discussion on Injection Techniques 24:58 Seeking Expert Help and Hospital Visit 29:50 Continuing Treatment and Hyperbaric Therapy 30:34 Understanding Aspirin and Viagra in Medical Treatments 30:51 Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy: Benefits and Applications 31:25 Dosage and Administration of Aspirin 32:01 Viagra in Vascular Occlusions 33:09 Hyperbaric Chamber Experience 34:59 Managing Occlusions: A Case Study 37:52 The Role of Ultrasound in Treatment 41:50 Post-Treatment Recovery and Reflections 43:38 Collaborative Care and Telehealth 44:48 Lessons Learned and Future Practices 52:59 The Importance of Informed Consent 54:56 Treating Friends and Family: Ethical Considerations 57:06 Final Thoughts and Recommendations APPLY TO OUR NEW IA COMPETITION & WIN A TICKET TO ICCE IN CAIRO, EGYPT!

It's 2 a.m. The on-call resident's voice is shaky. The CT shows an 18cm abdominal aortic aneurysm with a Type 1B endoleak. There's gas in the sac, fluid in the belly, and the patient has a defibrillator on both sides of his chest. Is it a rupture? A graft infection? An aortoenteric fistula? All of the above? You're the vascular surgeon, what do you do? This episode dives deep into decision-making when EVAR fails, when infection strikes, and when the patient might not survive a definitive repair. Let's talk about what happens when clinical textbooks meet real-world chaos.

Send us a textA shocking medical mystery is unfolding in embalming rooms across the world, as funeral professionals report strange white fibrous clots never seen before 2021. Retired Air Force Major Tom Havilind shares his groundbreaking research documenting this disturbing phenomenon through three years of worldwide surveys.Havilind's journey began when embalmers reported finding long, rubbery, white clots in bodies they processed—clots that appeared only after COVID vaccine rollout. What started as anecdotal reports has now been systematically documented, with over 60% of surveyed embalmers confirming these findings. Most alarming? These unusual clots appear in 20-30% of corpses.But this isn't just about the dead. Vascular surgeons and cardiologists are now quietly confirming they're seeing identical clots in living patients. One catheterization lab specialist reported removing these unusual clots from patients weekly—99% of whom had received COVID vaccines. When these medical professionals speak about vaccine connections, many report being silenced or threatened with job loss.The medical implications are profound. These abnormal clots don't respond to traditional clot-busting drugs. They appear to form when spike protein bonds with the body's natural fibrinogen, creating misfolded structures resistant to normal breakdown processes. Beyond the white fibrous clots, embalmers report increased microclotting and changes in traditional clotting patterns.Despite submitting his findings to health authorities after each survey, Haviland reports receiving no response from the CDC, FDA, NIH or HHS. This wall of silence extends throughout the medical establishment, with many professionals privately acknowledging the problem while publicly remaining quiet.As health officials prepare recommendations for future COVID vaccines, this evidence demands attention. When medical professionals fear speaking truth more than they fear patient harm, we've entered dangerous territory. The question remains: how many more patients must suffer before authorities acknowledge what embalmers and surgeons are seeing with their own eyes?Support the showhttps://www.jacksonfamilyministry.comhttps://bobslone.com/home/podcast-production/

Dr. Ezra Schwartz (@ezraschwartz10) interviews Dr. Firas Moussa and Mr. Jake Howitt to discuss the IMPROVE-AD Trial, a landmark, multi-institutional study investigating treatment strategies for uncomplicated Type B Aortic Dissection (uTBAD). The IMPROVE-AD Trial is a multicenter randomized trial funded by the NIH/NHLBI that compares thoracic endovascular aortic repair (TEVAR) plus optimal medical therapy (OMT) vs. OMT and surveillance with selective TEVAR in patients with uncomplicated TBAD. The trial aims to address critical gaps in evidence left by prior studies (INSTEAD-XL, ADSORB), with a unique focus on quality of life, cost-effectiveness, and genetic data. Dr. Firas Mussa is a professor and the Chief of Vascular and Endovascular Surgery at McGovern Medical School at UTHealth Houston. He previously served as the Director of the Vascular Surgery Residency and Fellowship programs at NYU Langone Health. Dr. Mussa earned his medical degree from the University of Baghdad, followed by general surgery training at Johns Hopkins University and a vascular surgery fellowship at Baylor College of Medicine. His research focuses on complex aortic pathology, and he serves as the principal investigator of the IMPROVE AD trial. Mr. Jake Howitt is the Community Engagement Co-Chair of the IMPROVE AD trial and a leading patient advocate within the PCORI-funded Aortic Dissection Collaborative. As a survivor of aortic dissection, he is passionate about improving patient-provider communication and raising awareness of hereditary aortic disease. His work emphasizes the importance of education, empathy, and community-building in clinical research and care delivery. Special thank you to Jacob Soucy (@JacobWSoucy).
