Manufacturing EngineerAbout PerfuzePerfuze is a growth stage medical device company, based in Galway, dedicated to improving the quality of life for stroke patients.
Perfuze is developing innovative catheter-based technology to extract blood clots from the brain following an Acute Ischemic Stroke.
We are located in the IDA Business Park in Dangan, Galway.
Millipede technology has been recognised by the FDA through the granting of a Breakthrough Device Designation and was awarded CE Mark in 2021.
At Perfuze, we push the limits of what medical technology can do to help restore health and extend life.
Our mission is to halve the number of patients who suffer disability post stroke treatment.
We want to accelerate and advance our ability to create significant innovations, but we will only succeed with the right people on our team.
