Cardiac Surgery Product Portfolio

Cardiac surgery devices for OPCAB and selected MICS / MIDCAB workflows.

Six product families for surgical exposure, beating-heart stabilization, suture management, and anastomotic field support.

AeroMed Surgical brings disposable and reusable cardiac surgery configurations together in one customer-facing portfolio. Product selection, permitted combinations, regulatory documentation, and target-market availability are confirmed by product and model scope.

Final product selection and use should follow the current IFU, surgeon assessment, institutional protocol, and target-market requirements.

Quick Answer

What should a distributor or cardiac team understand first?

The page separates product function, configuration choice, and regulatory status so that reusable frames, disposable stabilizers, working ends, exposure products, and support products are not treated as one undifferentiated “suite.”

Products

What is included?

Six product families covering exposure, stabilization, positioning, suture management, and anastomotic field support.

Selection

How do I choose?

Start with surgical approach, reusable-versus-disposable preference, mounting arrangement, compatible working end, and required documentation.

Regulatory

Do all products share one CE or FDA status?

No. Regulatory wording is shown separately for each product family and exact model scope.

Evaluation

What can I request?

Model matrices, IFU and labeling information, available certificates, catalogs, samples, product training, and quotation support.

Product Architecture

Three functional groups—not a mandatory five-step surgical sequence.

The portfolio is organized around what each product does. Hospitals and distributors can evaluate one product family, a selected configuration, or a broader portfolio according to local needs.

Surgical Exposure

Access to the operative field

Reusable sternal retraction for selected open cardiac procedures and compatible instrument workflows.

This table is a procurement and technical-discussion guide. It does not replace the current IFU, surgeon assessment, institutional protocol, or regulatory review.

Classic sternotomy OPCAB HK-Fy / HK-Fy-R(II) single-use standoff configurations Compatible SF working end selected by documented workflow Selected HK-FXG-Q and compatible AeroMed mounting arrangement where applicable Exact model, standoff type, foot configuration, IFU, packaging, and target-market documentation
Reusable stabilization pathway HK-GDQ-Q adjustable ball-joint frame or HK-GDQ-Z straight-rod frame Compatible SF working end Bedside support / table-side mounting arrangement; HK-GDQ does not require the disposable suture holder as its mounting base Reusable-frame model, working-end interface, mounting hardware, reprocessing documentation, and regulatory scope
Selected MICS / MIDCAB evaluation HK-Yg / HK-Zg commercial references; MDR documentation may use HK-Fy-Yg / HK-Fy-Zg Compatible SF working end Compatible table-side holding arrangement to be confirmed during technical evaluation Access approach, working length, mounting path, labeling name, IFU, and target-market documents

Naming transition: commercial references HK-Yg and HK-Zg may appear as HK-Fy-Yg and HK-Fy-Zg in MDR documentation. Confirm the exact labeling and document set before quotation, registration, or customer submission.

Clinical Workflow Configurations

Use scenarios to guide product evaluation—not to prescribe surgery.

The following modules help distributors and clinical teams identify which product information to request. They do not provide procedural instructions or clinical outcome claims.

Configuration 01

Standard sternotomy OPCAB discussion

Evaluate the relationship between surgical exposure, single-use stabilization, compatible SF working ends, suture management, and field-support products.

  • HK-SR Sternal Retractor
  • HK-Fy / HK-Fy-R(II) pathway
  • Compatible SF foot selection
  • HK-FXG and HK-CWG as separate support products
Configuration 02

Lateral or posterior target exposure discussion

Review whether a positioning configuration and a separate local stabilization configuration are required for the intended workflow.

  • SF-VII apical-positioning discussion
  • SF-III / SF-IV local stabilization discussion
  • Single-use or reusable support structure
  • Institutional protocol and surgeon assessment remain decisive
Configuration 03

Selected MICS / MIDCAB evaluation

Confirm working length, access route, table-side mounting arrangement, compatible working end, and model-specific documentation before evaluation.

  • HK-Yg / HK-Zg commercial references
  • MDR naming transition check
  • Compatible holding arrangement
  • Target-market registration review

Clinical-use boundary: Final device selection, mounting, handling, and procedural use should follow the current IFU, surgeon assessment, training requirements, institutional protocol, and applicable local regulation.

Regulatory Documentation

Different product families follow different regulatory pathways.

The portfolio is manufactured under one ISO 13485 quality system, but this does not mean all six products share one CE certificate, one device class, or one FDA pathway.

Frequently Asked Questions

Common distributor and clinical-team questions.

What products are included in the AeroMed cardiac surgery portfolio?

The portfolio includes Heart Stabilizer System, Reusable Stabilizer Frame, Stabilizer Foot Family, Sternal Retractor, Disposable Suture Holder, and Surgical Blower / Mister.

What is the difference between the disposable Heart Stabilizer and HK-GDQ?

The Heart Stabilizer is a single-use stabilization system. HK-GDQ is a reusable support frame available in adjustable ball-joint and straight-rod versions. The correct option depends on the access approach, mounting arrangement, reusable-versus-disposable preference, compatible working end, and current documentation.

Which stabilizer feet are available?

SF-III and SF-IV are vacuum stabilization configurations, SF-V is a mechanical stabilization configuration, and SF-VII is used for apical-positioning discussions. Permitted combinations should be confirmed against the current IFU and model documentation.

Does AeroMed support OPCAB and MICS / MIDCAB configurations?

Yes, the portfolio includes configurations for classic sternotomy OPCAB and selected MICS / MIDCAB evaluation. Exact product combinations, working lengths, mounting arrangements, and target-market documentation should be confirmed before evaluation.

What is the FDA status of the Heart Stabilizer?

The Heart Stabilizer is presented as FDA listed under Product Code MWS and 510(k)-exempt. This is not an FDA approval claim. Current FDA records should be checked before commercial use.

What regulatory documents can distributors request?

Qualified partners can request the cardiac product matrix, available CE documentation, FDA-listing information where relevant, IFU and labeling information, declarations, packaging details, catalogs, and target-market support documents.

How can a hospital or distributor arrange product evaluation?

Contact AeroMed Surgical with the target country, preferred product family, surgical workflow, model interest, evaluation quantity, and documentation requirements. A model-specific evaluation package can then be prepared.
