Greatbatch likes to keep its business close to the heart. The company is a leading maker of batteries used in implantable medical devices such as pacemakers and implantable cardioverter defibrillators (ICDs). Other medical components include electrodes, capacitors, and feedthroughs (used to deliver electrical signals from an implantable medical device to an electrode). Greatbatch also makes batteries for demanding industrial applications, such as oil and gas exploration, and supplies power sources for the Space Shuttle. Boston Scientific, Medtronic, Johnson & Johnson, and St. Jude Medical are among the company's top customers. Greatbatch gets nearly half of its sales from US clients.

Guided Therapeutics (formerly SpectRx) can shed some light on your condition. The firm is developing diagnostic products, including a cervical cancer detection device, using its proprietary biophotonic technology known as LightTouch. The technology uses optics and spectroscopy to provide doctors with non-invasive diagnostic methods for finding cancer. In order to zero in on its diagnostic business, the company in 2007 sold its SimpleChoice line of insulin pumps, which diabetics use to control blood glucose levels, to ICU Medical; it changed its name to Guided Therapeutics the following year to reflect its new focus.

Hansen Medical helps doctors maneuver through matters of the heart. The company develops medical devices designed to diagnose and treat atrial fibrillation, a common type of cardiac arrhythmia. Its core portable Sensei system (used along with its Artisan catheters) incorporates robotics to assist in guiding the movement of flexible catheters in such places as the atria and ventricles. Sensei has received FDA and European regulatory approval for certain uses, including manipulation and mapping of catheters during electrophysiology procedures (to diagnose irregular electrical impulses in the heart); the product is awaiting clearance for use in more delicate ablation procedures in the treatment of arrhythmia.

HealthTronics' cup runneth over with urological healthcare services and equipment. The company contracts with medical facilities to provide urology treatment services including the provision of equipment, scheduling, training, and clinical technicians. It makes, sells, and services such equipment as lasers and lithotripters, which use shock waves to break up kidney and gall-bladder stones. HealthTronics also offers urological pathology testing and cryosurgical (freezing of tissue) treatments for enlarged prostate and prostate cancer. In addition, HealthTronics offers related consumable supplies and maintenance services. The company is owned by Endo Pharmaceuticals.

HemCon Medical Technologies has been a boon to US soldiers wounded on the battlefield. The company's proprietary HemCon bandages and ChitoFlex dressings stop bleeding in trauma patients; in fact, the dressing becomes adhesive upon contact with blood and can prevent hemorrhage. HemCon bandages are made from chitosan, a polysaccharide derived from dried shrimp shells and known for its clotting abilities. Besides the military, its products are used by first responders, oral surgeons, and hospitals. The company was founded in 2001 with partial funding from the US Army; HemCon bandages are now part of every Army medic's standard kit.
