Types of Innovation Rightward Shift Technical Innovation A collaboration among the University of Minnesota, University of Minnesota Physicians and Fairview Health Services Process Innovation 5
Technical Innovation Traditional Advantages Weaknesses • Leverage Engineering • Slow • Patents • Acquisition is later • Startups A collaboration among the University of Minnesota, University of Minnesota Physicians and Fairview Health Services 6
Ventricular Tachycardia Major Killer Blood Pressure with VT • 500 K deaths annually • Rapid Heart Rate with little cardiac output • 90% in weak Hearts CV

ICD Save Live Acutely, Increase VT • Patients do not die of VT episode • Now Live to have more VT • Some evidence shows that ICD actually increases VT episodes
Model of VT Scar Modification Modify Central Isthmus Stevenson - NASPE 2002
Early Substrate Based Ablation— Fewer Shocks; Fewer Hospital Stays Fewer Shocks Reddy VY et al. N Engl J Med 2009; 357: 2657 -2665; Kuck et al Lancet 2010 Fewer Admissions
RF Ablation is Superficial LV Endocardial Ablation Stevenson – NASPE 2003 • General low success (50 -75% at 1 year) • 1 -9 mm deep • Hard to find and target deep substrate

Two Approaches • Anterior –Intuitive –Less Liver Injury • Posterior –Better LV Access –CABG patients –Less Diaphram
Hypothesis • Pericardial space bordered by two membrane • Inner moves with heart at 60 -90 bpm (1 Hz) • Outer moves with lungs at 12 bpm (0. 2 Hz) • Pressure frequency in lung field should be 0. 2 Hz • Pressure frequency in pericardium should be a blend of 0. 2 Hz and 1 Hz RV 1 Hz Thorax 0. 2 Hz

Spreading Fixed Costs • Volume is key Fixed Costs (8759) • More Cases Per Day • Could be faster cases • Reduce of turnover time – No GA • If double case volume • Overall, Margin -9 K to +3 K A collaboration among the University of Minnesota, Proprietary and confidential — do not distribute University of Minnesota Physicians and Fairview Health Services Fixed Costs 4380 31

Barriers • Financial changes make acquisition later • Conflict of Interest Rules • Risk Aversion • Funding of initial ideas • Focus on urgent not important A collaboration among the University of Minnesota, Proprietary and confidential — do not distribute University of Minnesota Physicians and Fairview Health Services 35
General Criteria for Acquisition • Most acquisitions are targeting technologies that will enhance sales and earnings growth. – Look for “natural” fit with existing infrastructure to drive post-acquisition success. – ROIC and EPS impact are benchmarks used to maintain financial discipline. – Transactions that require a continuing R&D expenditure and/or future regulatory approval to achieve financial goals are less attractive.

Conflict of interest is real Key is • Acknowledge industry can help • Make sure testing done by someone who doesn’t own shares A collaboration among the University of Minnesota, University of Minnesota Physicians and Fairview Health Services 42 Confi dentia l
Summary • Innovation is key • Process Innovation often as important but ignored • Need time to incubate ideas internally • Need conflict of interest rules to acknowledge benefits A collaboration among the University of Minnesota, University of Minnesota Physicians and Fairview Health Services 43 Confi dentia l
