“We are honored to be added to the Russell 2000® and 3000® Indexes just a few short months after our IPO, which reflects all of the progress we have made during 2021 to accelerate the commercial adoption of Barostim™, particularly in the U.S.,” said Nadim Yared, President and Chief Executive Officer of CVRx. “We look forward to the increased visibility and awareness of our therapy among the investment community brought on by our inclusion in the indexes.”

About CVRx, Inc.
CVRx is focused on the development and commercialization of Barostim™, the first medical technology approved by FDA that uses neuromodulation to improve the symptoms of patients with heart failure. Barostim is an implantable device that delivers electrical pulses to baroreceptors located in the wall of the carotid artery. Baroreceptors activate the body’s baroreflex, which in turn triggers an autonomic response to the heart. The therapy is designed to restore balance to the autonomic nervous system and thereby reduce the symptoms of heart failure. Barostim received the FDA Breakthrough Device designation and is FDA-approved for use in heart failure patients in the U.S. It has also received the CE Mark for heart failure and resistant hypertension in the European Economic Area.
