1 Putting the future in your hands today. Minimally Invasive Cardiac Surgery thinking forward
2 Minimally Invasive Cardiac Surgery (MICS) starts with thinking forward Minimally invasive procedures present new opportunities to reduce trauma and impact to patients being treated for cardiovascular disease. As the world s largest medical device company, Medtronic strives to provide the resources needed to facilitate the evolution of cardiac surgery toward the least invasive, most effective treatment possible. We re committed to providing access to the broadest portfolio of therapy, technology and training resources to help you transition from arrested, open chest procedures to less invasive procedures patients are requesting today. moving forward to provide advanced options for you and your patients. MICS CABG Heart Valve Surgery Surgical Ablation Perfusion Techniques for Blood Conservation
3 innovating forward with the most comprehensive MICS CABG minimally invasive CABG products and training Minimally invasive coronary artery bypass graft (CABG) surgery is a beating heart multi-vessel procedure in which the anastomoses are performed under direct vision through a lateral mini-thoracotomy. MICS CABG is a versatile procedure in which a hybrid or pump-assisted beating heart approach can be employed to meet your preference. Not all patients are candidates for beating heart procedures. Some patients would require cardiopulmonary support during surgery. Potential benefits of MICS CABG include reduced hospital stay, faster recovery, improved cosmetic outcome, and greater patient satisfaction. 1, 2 Caution: Care and caution should be taken to avoid damage to vessels and cardiac tissue during cannulation or other cardiac surgical procedures.

4 evolving forward with 35 years of experience to deliver Heart Valve Surgery more innovative options to help you treat valve disease Minimally invasive valve surgery is characterized by a small incision, usually performed as a right mini-thoracotomy or a mini-sternotomy under direct vision. Access and visibility are facilitated using femoral arterial and venous cannulation and minimized cardiopulmonary bypass support with augmented venous return techniques. Not all patients are candidates for minimally invasive heart valve surgery. These products have unique indications, warnings, and precautions. Refer to individual components for specific information. Devices are not intended for use except as indicated. Caution: Care and caution should be taken to avoid damage to vessels and cardiac tissue during cannulation or other cardiac surgical procedures. The most recognized benefit of minimally invasive valve surgery is a better cosmetic result. Other potential benefits are reduced trauma and pain, decreased blood loss, decreased wound infection, 3 and reduced recovery time. 3, 4 Freestyle Heart Valve Mosaic & Mosaic ULTRA Heart Valves with Cinch Holder Profile 3D Ring CG Future COMPOSITE Ring and CG Future Band Duran AnCore Ring and Band Simplici-T Band MiAR Antegrade Cardioplegia Cannulae MiRCSP Retrograde Cardioplegia Cannulae
5 driving forward with confidence Surgical Ablation you ll achieve consistent conduction block in your next MICS ablation case 5 Minimally invasive ablation surgery is characterized by two small incisions (right and left mini-thoracotomies) and two small port-sized incisions per side. Therapy is similar to a sternotomy-based approach, but access and visibility are different. The Cardioblate Surgical Ablation Device should not be used for patients who have active endocarditis at time of surgery. Potential Complications - Possible complications related to the ablation of cardiac tissue in combination with open heart surgery are: Tissue perforation Extension of extracorporeal bypass Perioperative heart rhythm disturbances (atrial and/or ventricular) Postoperative embolic complications Pericardial effusion or tamponade Injury to the great vessels Valve leaflet damage Conduction disturbances (SA/AV node) Acute ischemic myocardial event Thrombus formation Direct vision is supported by endoscopic visualization and is the recommended technique for surgeons learning to perform minimally invasive ablation procedures. As surgeons gain more experience, they may choose to reduce the incision size and move to a completely thoracoscopic approach.

6 staying forward with perfusion options that reduce trauma Perfusion Techniques for Blood Conservation and impact for your CABG and valve surgery patients Rethinking Blood Conservation (RBC), an evidence-based educational program offered by Medtronic, works with you to devise strategies and tactics to improve cardiac procedures, including MICS. Important aspects of RBC include use of a centrifugal pump incorporated into a minimized cardiopulmonary bypass circuit with a biocompatible coating, femoral arterial and venous cannulation using augmented venous return techniques, and a comprehensive blood conservation strategy. We provide a multi-modality approach to blood conservation that incorporates reduced-prime and biocompatible extracorporeal circuits, autologous bloodcell salvaging, and hemostasis management. Through various product selections, techniques and procedures, studies have shown a reduction in post-op complication rates 6 and reduced transfusion requirements both intra- and post-operatively. 6, 7 Cannulation techniques for minimally invasive procedures are dependent on the incision and access site as well as surgeon preference. We offer many cannulae to facilitate femoral and direct cannulation of vessels through both open and percutaneous insertion methods.
7 moving forward with convenient access to Advance Your Technique With Training world class training Through Medtronic CardioVascular Academia programs, we offer unique training involving the latest technologies and advanced techniques in minimally invasive cardiac surgery. Come and learn the skills that will place your practice at the leading edge of cardiac surgery. During a typical session, you can expect to: Observe procedures performed by leading surgeons. Gain knowledge of patient selection, key procedural steps, instrumentation, anesthesia management and post-surgical care. Interact with surgical teams and discuss protocol changes to achieve the greatest benefits from the procedure. Visit for a listing of our most â current training locations.
