PECA Labs is a Carnegie Mellon and UPMC spin-off dedicated to bringing better medical devices to orphan populations, with an initial focus on the pediatric cardiovascular system. Our first product, the MASA Valve, is a novel synthetic heart valve for a rare pediatric cardiac reconstructive procedure. The MASA Valve has already received a Humanitarian Use Device (HUD) designation from the FDA, and 70 human implantations of the intra-operatively constructed version have shown improved freedom from re-operation compared to any currently available option. PECA Labs was founded in 2011 and is based in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania.
