The first produces catheters, stents, valves, balloons, and surgical technologies used to treat vascular and cardiac diseases. The latter makes nerve and brain stimulation devices, implantable drug delivery systems, products used to manage diabetes, and surgical devices for ear, nose, and throat and spinal conditions.
