No long hospital stays.
No drainage bottles.
Continuous drainage without the hassle.

The ACES® device was designed to simplify pleural effusion management with a fully implantable approach that supports continuous fluid movement without the burden of ongoing drainage management.

A different approach to patient care starts here.

What happens when pleural effusion management is reimagined? 🫁

A newly published case report in The Annals of Thoracic Surgery: Internalized Continuous Pleuroperitoneal Shunt Placement During Medical Thoracoscopy for Refractory Pleural Effusion highlights the fully implantable ACES® device in a 48-year-old patient with recurrent pleural effusion and complex comorbidities.

Follow-up at 30 and 90 days demonstrated significant pleural effusion reduction and improvement in dyspnea.

Designed to support continuous fluid movement without external drainage systems, the ACES device offers a fully implantable approach aimed at reducing patient burden and eliminating the need for ongoing at-home drainage and management.

The publication also includes a surgical technique video showcasing implantation during medical thoracoscopy for your viewing: https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S2772993126001749

A new approach. A fully implantable solution. A different future for pleural effusion management. Helping give patients the freedom to breathe life in.

Big day at Baylor Scott & White. 🫁

Our recent training with Dr. Podgaetz was a huge success filled with great conversations, hands-on learning, and excitement around the fully implantable approach behind the ACES® device.

We’re especially excited that this marked the first ACES case in Texas.

Grateful for the opportunity to collaborate with clinicians who are passionate about innovation and improving care for patients with recurrent pleural effusions.
