About AGA Medical

AGA Medical, based in Plymouth, Minnesota, is a leading innovator and manufacturer of medical devices for the treatment of structural heart defects and vascular diseases. AGA Medical's AMPLATZER occlusion devices offer minimally invasive, transcatheter treatments that have been clinically shown to be highly effective in defect closure. The Company's devices and delivery systems use relatively small catheters and can be retrieved and repositioned prior to release from the delivery cable, enabling optimal placement without the need to repeat the procedure or use multiple devices. AGA Medical is the only manufacturer with occlusion devices approved to close seven different structural heart defects, with leading market positions for each of its devices. More than 1,500 articles supporting the benefits of AMPLATZER products have been published in medical literature. AGA Medical markets AMPLATZER products in 112 countries worldwide. In addition to its presence with cardiologists, AGA Medical has also leveraged its core competencies in nitinol braiding and transcatheter delivery systems to develop products for the treatment of certain vascular diseases, which are sold primarily to interventional radiologists and vascular surgeons.
