Month: March 2022

We are proud to announce that Zahrawi Group Structural Heart and Neuromodulation Unit, KSA has successfully implanted a patient with Coronary Sinus Reducer from our partner Neovasc at Al Mouwasat hospital, Dammam.

The patient underwent 10 years ago a coronary artery bypass graft, with diabetes & hypertension history and has chest pain despite optimal medication therapy. During the last year, her Angina and chest pain led to several emergency room visits and hospitalizations. Consequently, several conventional percutaneous coronary interventions were performed including revascularizations for chronic total occlusions, but such conventional solutions proved to have limited benefits to her profile and did not reduce her chest pain nor the frequency of Angina.

Thanks to the Coronary Sinus Reducer implant, the patient’s quality of life improved considerably, reducing her chest pain significantly and she is now able to walk for a longer distance without feeling tired.

Concerned HCP has presented the case at the EPIIC session hosted by the most prominent Cardiologists in the Eastern region, and the therapy was also published by a local newspaper.

Congratulations to our Structural Heart and Neuromodulation Unit in KSA for accomplishing such a great milestone!

We are pleased to announce that Zahrawi Group Bahrain was awarded “Partner Of The Year” by our partner Beckman Coulter Life Sciences.

Our Bahrain team received the award as a recognition of their hard work after they successfully placed the very first Beckman Coulter Life Sciences CytoFLEX SRT sorter in all middle east region at the Arabian Gulf University in Manama, Bahrain. The system was launched by Beckman on March 2021 and the first installation was concluded by Q1 2022. The CytoFLEX SRT Cell Sorter is a benchtop sorter capable of meeting requirements for a wide range of sorting needs. The system includes innovative technologies that simplify the setup and operation, empowering investigators to focus on the research questions.

Please join us in sending our warmest congratulations to our Bahrain Lab Division for this accomplishment!
