4thTimeAround Posted April 21, 2011 Share Posted April 21, 2011 and helps keep veins unclogged. Splitting hairs, but just to set the record straight, it's arteries, not veins. While we have a venoous stent in the works, up to this point it's been arteries for our stent lines. Tackling diseases of the venous vasculature is actually still in its infancy. We do have a vena cava (the "big vein") filter for trapping clots from causing a pulmonary embolism further up the line, and that is really a life saver lately, as PE's are more common and attributed to more deaths, directly or indirectly, than any cancer out there. The man has been honored globaly for his efforts in the medical field, and his company lives on with his ideals and vision. You gotta love a company where you walk in to the huge world headquarters and you see huge poster-sized full corps DCI pictures of Star from every year on the walls. It's amazing what an influence he's had on both worlds, and many times, he's done it without many people even knowing about it. Anyone in the Bloomington area over the weekend can view Mr . Cook in repose in the rotunda of Cook's headquarters this Saturday.
