Berlin, October 2, 2024
x-cardiac, a leader in AI-based medical devices for the prediction of postoperative complications after cardiac surgery, is pleased to announce the successful MDR (Medical Device Regulation) certification of its new x-cardiac-platform. This certification introduces a completely new generation of products offering state-of-the-art technologies to optimize patient care and safety.

The x-cardiac-platform is an innovative tool in the field of digital biomarkers and is specifically designed to increase patient safety and treatment quality in critical situations. With the successful MDR certification, the platform fulfills the strictest European requirements for safety and performance and thus marks a significant milestone in medical technology.

The new product generation includes two innovative plug-ins: x-c-bleeding and x-c-renal-injury. These plug-ins offer unprecedented support in the detection and treatment of bleeding and kidney damage after major heart surgery.

“With the new product generation, we can offer completely new possibilities for predicting postoperative complications in everyday clinical practice, which we will now increasingly promote beyond Germany, Austria, and Switzerland, also with sales partners,” says Oliver Höppner, CEO of x-cardiac. “With the x-cardiac platform, we are offering users a powerful medical device that can make a lasting difference in patient care. We are looking forward to the upcoming EACTS Annual Summit 2024 (European Association for Cardio-Thoracic Surgery) from October 10-12 in Lisbon, where we plan to present our new product generation to the professional audience.”

Chief Medical Officer Prof. Dr. Alexander Meyer on the new product generation: “The x-cardiac-platform sets new standards in the clinical care of patients by performing local validation of the algorithms for each customer. This enables us to ensure that our solutions are optimally tailored to individual needs and circumstances. Optional fine tuning allows us to customize the models to deliver even more precise results.”

Clean energy needs a clean planet: PLAN-B NET ZERO and everwave launch joint initiative20.2.2026 13:26:02 CET | Press release

(Berlin, Germany) A strong start to 2026. PLAN-B NET ZERO enters into a partnership with the Aachen-based environmental scale-up everwave. With the guiding principle ‘1 euro = 1 kilogram of waste’, the partners recovered 10,000 kilograms of waste from rivers in Cambodia at the start of the initiative Around 11 million tonnes of plastic waste enter the oceans every year. Without effective countermeasures, this volume could almost triple by 2040. Studies show that about 80 percent of marine plastic reaches the sea via roughly 1,656 rivers worldwide. To date, everwave has removed more than 2.4 million kilograms of plastic from rivers in Cambodia, Albania, and Thailand. The company uses waste collection boats, barriers, and manual cleanups to stop plastic before it reaches the oceans. At the same time, mobile sorting and recycling solutions return materials efficiently to the circular economy. AI support optimizes collection routes to clean as many waterways as possible in a sustainable wa

FEV analysis: TCO cut by up to 33 percent through range extender trucks11.2.2026 12:40:51 CET | Press release

Aachen – FEV has published new analysis results on the economic efficiency of electrified commercial vehicles as part of an internal research program. The evaluation of extensive techno-economic data shows: depending on the driving cycle, through trucks with range extender architecture (REEV/Hybrid BEV) the total cost of ownership (TCO) can be reduced by up to 33 percent compared to conventional diesel trucks – while also significantly reducing CO₂ emissions. Even in the most unfavorable long-haul scenario, the TCO declined by approximately 14 percent.
