Rapid HTAs of six medical devices released in Tuscany in April 2025

The Tuscany Regional Healthcare HTA body issues three types of documents: full HTA reports, rapid HTA reports, and motivational forms. With the regional decree 7508 of April 14, 2025, Tuscany Regional Healthcare published six rapid HTA reports (five new assessments and one reassessment) of medical devices in the cardiovascular, peripheral vascular, endoscopy, and dermatology fields.

Some examples of evaluated technologies are provided below:

• AVEIR DR dual chamber leadless pacemaker by Abbott for patients with sinus node dysfunction with or without atrioventricular block;
• Lightning 7 and Lightning 12 catheters with Lightning aspiration tubing for the Indigo system by Penumbra in patients with emboli or soft thrombi in peripheral arteries and veins and/or those with pulmonary embolism (reassessment).
