AGA Medical Holdings heals broken hearts. The company specializes in making medical devices for treating structural heart defects and vascular diseases. Its AMPLATZER occlusion devices use minimally invasive small catheters, which physicians can retrieve and position without the need for multiple devices or repetition of procedures. Approved for use in both Europe and the US, the company sells its devices in more than 100 countries through its own sales force and direct distributors. Its primary customers are pediatric cardiologists, radiologists, and vascular surgeons. Dr. Kurt Amplatz established AGA Medical Holdings in 1995 while working as a professor at the University of Minnesota Department of Radiology.
