J&J MedTech’s Devi Govender wants to change the lives – and the language – of heart recovery patients
In this episode of the DeviceTalks Weekly Podcast, Managing Editor Kayleen Brown sits down with Johnson & Johnson MedTech Heart Recovery Worldwide President Devi Govender at DeviceTalks Boston. Govender shares how a deeply personal family experience shaped her mission to transform cardiovascular care.
She reflects on Abiomed’s integration into Johnson & Johnson, the evolution of heart recovery therapies, and why the industry must shift its mindset from treating “heart failure” to enabling “heart recovery.”
The discussion explores patient-centered innovation, AI, clinical evidence, and the power of combining technologies, data, and advocacy to redefine the future of cardiovascular care for patients around the world.
