FORT MILL, S.C., Nov. 20, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Catheter Precision, Inc. (VTAK - NYSE/American), a US based medical device company focused on developing technologically advanced products for the cardiac electrophysiology market, today announces the rapid commercial uptake of its LockeT closure device in South Africa.
With the assistance of local distributor, HLC Medical and Dr. Heather Henry-Lines, LockeT was successfully implemented in five hospitals within two months. Three of these hospitals are using LockeT daily and the other two hospitals are using LockeT routinely. In addition, two additional hospitals are awaiting internal approvals. All five hospitals have placed reorders of LockeT via VTAK’s distributor.
“The rapid uptake of LockeT in such a short time frame underscores the importance of LockeT in emerging markets”, said Fatih Ayoglu, European Sales Manager at Catheter Precision.
