Kevin Drisko from Edwards Lifesciences had the opportunity to close the CSI Congress Devices for Heart Failure meeting on 09 December 2023 with a presentation titled “Harmonized Approach to Early Feasibility Studies (EFS) for Medical Devices in the EU.” This Innovative Health Initiative (IHI)-funded activity was enthusiastically received by attendees committed to accelerating and advancing device-based therapies for heart failure.

Special thanks go to the meeting organizers for including this important topic in the agenda, and to William Abraham and Horst Sievert for moderating the session. Appreciation is also extended to Giuditta Callea and Andrea Rappagliosi for their leadership in the #HEUEFS project.
