Description:

Emphasys Medical develops therapeutic devices for the treatment of patients with emphysema and other breathing disorders. It offers Zephyr Endobronchial Valve system, which is designed to block air from passing through the opening in the lung and into the chest cavity, resulting in the reduction or elimination of airflow through the leak to allow the tissue to heal. Emphasys Medical was founded in 2000 and is based in Redwood City, California.
