Ep 116 - How Medtronic CDS is bringing the power of data to bear in the fight against chronic diseases

In this episode, two senior leaders from Medtronic’s Cardiovascular Diagnostics & Services group share the group’s vision of “turning data into the right therapy.” Sanjiv Arora, vice president of business development and strategy, and Leo Rapallini, vice president of research & development, explain how trail-blazing technologies like the LINQ family of ICMs are a great tool in measuring infrequent – but important - cardiac events. But the company sees an opportunity to employ these tiny implantable data-collection devices to provide data that might enable doctors to predict problems before they come, both in cardiac care and other areas as part of a broader disease management strategy.
