competition none

Pigs You asked about competition.
C-Pulse has put the VAD concept for class 3 patients in the bin.
Stem cells
Get a better idea with the release of MSB results on the 14th
Most likely the results will only indicate they are a possible co-therapy with C-Pulse and at best, have some sort of place in the space.
If they don't have catagory dominating results (which C-Pulse has going foward) they have rounds of science to do before they even get to trials etc.
Basically competition NONE.
