4. 4 10 th Annual Meeting: Friday, March 11 th – Products for the Sites What is INTERMACS ? INTERMACS is the North American registry for patients who are receiving durable, FDA approved mechanical circulatory support device therapy to treat advanced heart failure. This registry was devised as a joint effort of the National Heart, Lung and Blood Institute (NHLBI), the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS), the Food and Drug Administration (FDA), clinicians, scientists and industry representatives.

5. 5 10 th Annual Meeting: Friday, March 11 th – Products for the Sites Facilitate the refinement of patient selection to maximize outcomes with current and new device options. Identify predictors of good outcomes as well as risk factors for adverse events after device implantation. Develop consensus “best practice” guidelines to improve clinical management by reducing short and long term complications of MCSD therapy. Guide clinical application and evolution of next generation devices. Utilize Registry information to guide improvements in technology, particularly as next generation devices evolve. Original Goals of the Registry

6. 6 10 th Annual Meeting: Friday, March 11 th – Products for the Sites Expanding the Purpose of Intermacs: Protocol 4.0 (Jun 2014) “INTERMACS® now serves as the national quality improvement system to assess the characteristics, treatments, and outcomes of patients receiving MCSDs approved by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA).”

7. 7 10 th Annual Meeting: Friday, March 11 th – Products for the Sites Goals of the Registry: Protocol 4.0 (Jun 2014) The purposes of INTERMACS® include: 1.Collecting pertinent and standardized patient demographic, clinical and device related data elements from participating hospitals to measure and assess the quality of care and outcomes for patients receiving MCSDs; (nationally and hospital specific) 2.Providing confidential periodic reports to the participating hospitals, government agencies, and industrial partners to improve the quality of care of patients receiving mechanical circulatory support and to evaluate the effectiveness and optimal utilization and performance of these devices; 3.Fostering collaborative research based upon the data collected by means of INTERMACS®; and 4.Serving as a scalable data infrastructure for pre and post market studies.

12. 12 10 th Annual Meeting: Friday, March 11 th – Products for the Sites Typical / Potential Questions from Sites (Coordinator, Surgeon, Cardiologist, etc) How do I get my data? How does our patient selection compare nationally? How many ‘Level 1’ patients have we implanted during the last 3 years? I need data for the Joint Commission What is the one year survival for our destination therapy patients? Is our driveline infection rate equivalent to the rate for the nation? What are our causes of death? For a specific patient (John Doe), what is the time course of his EQ5D How many Total Artificial Hearts (TAHs) have been implanted in women I have a statistician available to analyze risk factors for death in our patients What is my compliance rate for completing follow-up forms? How has the kidney function of a specific patient (John Doe) changed from pre- to post implant?
