Talk:Thoratec

(untitled)
Not surprisingly, most of this article reads like a corporate brochure for Thoratec. Would anyone like to attempt the translation from Corporate pufferese to Encyclopedia Style? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 71.20.8.226 (talk) 20:49, 8 April 2015 (UTC)

Update needed 2017
I've made changes to the article to reflect that Thoratec would now be a part of Abbott, but I haven't been able to determine how much other information in the article is also out of date (do they still have a CEO? Are they even still called "Thoratec"?).

A search on the Abbott site (with both the abbott.com searchbox and Google) turns up zero hits for Thoratec. A quick look at sjm.com (Saint Jude Medical) doesn't seem to show much in the way of direct references to the name either, so it seems to me that Saint Jude probably phased out the name between the time they acquired Thoratec and the time they in turn were acquired. (The thoratec site seems to be way out of date, so not much help there.)--NapoliRoma (talk) 20:06, 5 May 2017 (UTC)
