SafeHeal is a clinical-stage medical device company based in France, specializing in innovative solutions for colorectal surgery. Their flagship product, Colovac, is designed to protect the anastomosis site during recovery from colorectal surgery, significantly reducing the risk of complications such as anastomotic leaks. Colovac functions as a flexible bypass sheath that minimizes the contact of fecal matter with the surgical site, allowing patients to maintain their natural digestive function while healing. This device is placed endoluminally and is fully reversible, remaining in place for a duration of ten days to support the body’s natural healing processes before being removed through an endoscopic procedure.

The development of Colovac represents a significant advancement in postoperative care, as it aims to eliminate the need for diverting ostomies, which can impose additional burdens on patients. By avoiding ostomy procedures, Colovac not only enhances patient comfort but also reduces the stigma and complications associated with ostomy care. SafeHeal's commitment to improving patient outcomes is further underscored by the positive feedback from leading colorectal surgeons who advocate for the device's benefits in enhancing the quality of life for patients undergoing colorectal surgery.
