About Renata Medical

Every 15 minutes, a child is born with a congenital heart defect (CHD). These children often need multiple surgeries to treat their condition — sometimes before their first birthday.

At Renata, we are focused on serving these unmet congenital needs by delivering safe and adaptable solutions designed for a lifetime of growth. In partnership with world-renowned physicians who dedicate their lives to treating children with CHD, Renata is driven to develop transformational solutions for young CHD patients that are designed to adapt and grow alongside them.
