of heart failure. NORMTM is an implantable medical device that measures volume by
detecting changes in the inferior vena cava (IVC) caused by very small changes in
intravascular volume, giving the clinician and patient advance warning of worsening heart failure and providing them with the time to makes changes to lifestyle and medication to prevent a decompensation.
