A medical device startup company, developing a breakthrough solution for transcatheter mitral valve replacement.

About Us

TruLeaf Medical was founded in 2017 by the late Prof. Uri Rosenschein, Netanel Benichou and Benjamin Spenser, who bring vast experience in structural heart disease, valve design and startup company management.

Our mission is to bring an ultimately user-friendly, Transcatheter Valve Replacement solution that will be available to every cardiologist and valvular regurgitation patient. Our focus is on procedure simplicity, safety and efficacy.

TruLeaf’s approach will bring the solution for the long-lasting problem in an elegant and safe way.

The Challenges

TMVR poses new challenges in comparison with TAVI:

  • Robust anchoring of the valve to the native annulus

  • Implantation in a minimally invasive approach – transcatheter

  • Creation of a simple and safe procedure

  • Elimination of paravalvular leaks (PVL)

  • Elimination of Left Ventricular Outflow Tract (LVOT) obstruction

  • Minimization of disturbance to the cardiac structure

  • Large valve area and high work blood pressures

  • Valve prosthesis durability
