Interval Modulation Therapy program and the execution of the BACKBEAT global pivotal trial involving patients with uncontrolled hypertension
who are indicated for a dual-chamber pacemaker and to fund its Virtue® Sirolimus AngioInfusion™ Balloon (“Virtue
SAB”) program and the Virtue SAB in the Treatment of Coronary In-Stent Restenosis Trial, as well as research and clinical
