Dear Friends,

2007 signaled significant investment by the Minneapolis Heart Institute Foundation in people, programs and processes. As you’ll see in the pages that follow, we achieved substantial program and financial outcomes, including successful research and education initiatives, new leadership and team-building, and development and expansion of external relationships.

Our research programs grew in the past year, with approximately 60 studies actively recruiting and a total of 130 open studies. At the same time, the Foundation assumed responsibility in 2007 for Continuing Medical Education, conducting the Grand Rounds program each Monday morning and sponsoring a well-attended Vascular Masters CME program. Publications of articles and reports in peer-reviewed journals, presentations at national scientific meetings and organizational leadership have achieved an all-time high, again reinforcing the standing of MHIF among the top ten cardiovascular clinical research and education centers in the nation.

Financially, the year resulted in positive unrestricted net assets for the first time since 2003, with significant and positive operating results. Audited total liabilities and net assets show a balance of $22,976,891, up from $21,236,362 in 2006. Total support and revenue was $9,312,014 and unrestricted revenue was $7,951,136, with expenses of $6,928,915.

More funds were contributed than ever before. Special events such as the Golf Event, the 25th Anniversary Gala Dinner and house parties set new records. Leadership gifts from the Jon Holden DeHaan Foundation, Medtronic, Piper Jaffray & Company, Mr. A.W. Cherne, Mrs. Judy Dayton, Mrs. Beverlee Dorn, the Charles F. Koplen Estate and Mr. and Mrs. Thomas P. Lowe set the momentum for a financially strong year. We wish to thank our very generous sponsors and donors for their support of our pioneering cardiovascular research and education programs.

Many individuals and organizations assumed major leadership roles to reach a record $1.6 million in annual gifts. Special thanks to Jerry Johnson, Chair of the Development Committee; Ray and Shirley Bentdahl, Chairs of the 25th Anniversary Gala; Kevin and Irene Graham, Physician Chairs of the 25th Anniversary Gala; and Andrew Kiernan, Chair of the Annual Golf Event. We extend our thanks to these individuals and all of the wonderful volunteers who helped ensure unprecedented success this past year.

At the Annual Meeting in April, Marna Fullerton and Emily Anne Tuttle were elected to the Board of Directors, representing the Board of the Abbott Northwestern Hospital Foundation. Sid Mallory, Executive Vice President of the Allina Office of Philanthropy, and Rich Meyer, President of the Abbott Northwestern Hospital Foundation, have joined as Ex-Officio members. MHIF Board members Ann Bentdahl, Frazier Eales, MD and Thomas A. Keller, III were similarly elected to the Abbott Northwestern Hospital Foundation Board as part of an agreement between Allina, ANWF and MHIF.

Brigid Bonner and Archie Smith completed two terms on the Board in April and Katherine Hiyane-Brown resigned from her position in June. To them we offer our deepest thanks for their energetic service and contributions to our growth.

Jackie Boucher, Vice President for Education and Joseph Cosico, Vice President for Research Operations, began their work in spring of 2007, bringing new dynamism and experience to the leadership team of MHIF.

We wish to extend our personal appreciation to all of you who contributed to this success with your time, knowledge and resources. Special thanks to our Board of Directors for their oversight, wisdom and 100% participation in our Annual Fund; to the Minneapolis Heart Institute® physicians and staff who contributed generously to our programs in many valuable ways; to our dedicated, talented and loyal staff; to our Research Partners for working with us to achieve remarkable results; and to our many wonderful donors for joining us in our drive to create a world without heart disease.

Developing Emergency Cardiac Service Protocols toReduce Mortality

When an individual is experiencing heart attack symptoms, every second counts. That’s why optimized emergency cardiac service protocols are so critical.

Dr. Timothy Henry, Director of Research at the Minneapolis Heart Institute Foundation, has led efforts to define a standardized protocol and integrated transfer system to move heart attack victims within a 210 mile radius to a qualified emergency cardiac treatment facility in under 90 minutes. This Level One protocol has resulted in a 50% reduction in mortality rate and the Foundation has trained over 50 hospitals around the country to leverage this life-saving team approach. In August, the Wall Street Journal featured a front-page article on the program’s potential to shorten treatment time and save tens of thousands of lives.

Dr. Michael Mooney’s extensive research on therapeutic hypothermia has advanced the Level One protocol by immediately lowering the body temperature of heart attack victims to prevent the onset of serious neurological damage. Foundation researchers have also extended Level One principles to more quickly diagnose and treat other life threatening conditions such as aortic dissection – a potentially catastrophic occurrence in which 1-2% of patients die each hour surgery is delayed.

Fact: Brain damage can occur just 4-6 minutes after the heart stops pumping blood, making time and temperature critical in successfully treating cardiac arrest.

The Face Of Heart Disease...is not who you expect.

Cardiovascular disease is not always predictable. Such was the case when Sarah – a physically fit nurse and mother of two teenage children – arrived at the Abbott Northwestern Hospital Emergency Room after collapsing in her own backyard. When the paramedics arrived, Sarah was in cardiac arrest and not breathing. They revived her and rushed her to the hospital.

Completing a CT scan upon admission, physicians quickly diagnosed Sarah with a coronary artery dissection. She was quickly transferred to a cath lab where her body temperature was lowered as an emergency angioplasty was performed. The immediate application of therapeutic cooling prevented irreversible brain damage.

After just two and a half months, Sarah is back working full time as a nurse and enjoying quality time with her children. “How blessed I feel to live in a community where such advanced cardiovascular practices are available.”

“ As a cancer survivor, I had beaten the odds – until I collapsed from a ruptured artery. Thanks

to the innovative therapeutic hypothermia program and the wonderful care I received, I’m

back to 100% and able to see my kids grow up.”

It’s through generous contributions like yours that new success stories are being told every day.

One in 500 people currently have a genetic predisposition for hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM), a leading cause of sudden death – and don’t even know it. An estimated 600,000 Americans live with HCM, more than multiple sclerosis and cystic fibrosis combined, and 6,000 die each year from this genetic disorder.

Dr. Barry Maron, Director of the HCM Center at the Minneapolis Heart Institute Foundation, is a clinical research pioneer in the diagnosis, treatment and management of HCM. Based on his research, he was the first to recommend managing HCM with implantable cardioverter defibrillators (ICDs) and has developed leading-edge guidelines for the effective care of individuals living with this condition. Dr. Maron was honored with the American Heart Association’s Heart & Stroke Hero Award in 2007.

The HCM Center plays a leading role in learning how to prevent sudden death in athletes, a growing public health concern resulting in 125 deaths each year. The HCM Center is gathering information critical to scientific investigation. Preliminary statistics from its National Registry for Sudden Death in Athletes show that HCM is responsible for 5-10 times more deaths than originally predicted and indicate that women and African Americans are not receiving adequate levels of diagnosis and treatment.

Identifying Risk Factors and Creating Guidelines to Save Lives

Fact: Out of the 1,000 individuals in the HCM Center’s patient registry, over 150 have already received a life-saving shock from their ICD.

“My first brother died from HCM at age 20 and another died at age 34. Ten years ago my Dad was diagnosed and then my son after passing out before a basketball game. In 2003, I was told that I had the disease as well.”

Karen, a kindergarten teacher in Duluth with five adult children, fully understands that HCM can strike without notice. She knows this genetic predisposition is hereditary and apt to affect many members within the same family. She counts on the guidelines developed by the HCM Center to ensure that her family is managing their condition in a way that will prolong their lives.

After being diagnosed with HCM, Dr. Maron recommended that Karen have an ICD implanted. Shortly thereafter, she was awakened at 5:30 am with a jolt. Her quarterly check-up indicated that her ICD had delivered this life-saving shock. Last August, again while she was asleep, the device saved her a second time. Karen repeatedly expresses her gratitude for being given a longer lease on life.

“ I feel like the guy on the cell phone commercial who has all those people standing behind him.

All the folks at the HCM Center ensured that I received the highest level of care. I am truly

grateful for them.”

Pioneering Research to Improve Health and Quality of Life

What do you do when heart disease negatively impacts your health and quality of life – and you’ve been told that your condition cannot be controlled with medications and that you are not a viable candidate for open heart surgery?

Current research being conducted by the Minneapolis Heart Institute Foundation has yielded highly promising results using a patient’s own stem cells to grow new blood vessels and heart tissue. The Foundation’s OPTIMIST Program is applying these ground-breaking research protocols and is tracking 1,200 patients from more than 30 states in its database. Led by Dr. Timothy Henry and Dr. Jay Traverse, the National Institutes of Health has designated the Foundation’s collaboration with the University of Minnesota, the Veteran’s Administration and the Hennepin County Medical Center as one of five Centers of Excellence in cardiovascular stem cell research in the country. The other four centers include Cleveland Clinic, University of Florida at Gainesville, Texas Heart Institute at St. Luke’s Hospital and Vanderbilt University.

Led by Dr. Wesley Pedersen, the Foundation is sponsoring the national RADAR pilot study which employs balloons led by catheters and applies radiation therapy to open aortic heart valves. This protocol allows older patients suffering from debilitating chest pain to regain a high quality of life without the risk of surgery or need to enter a long-term care facility.

...might be standing next to you.

Robert, a retired minister who lives in Northfield with his wife of 62 years, was suffering from memory loss, insomnia, coughing and loss of breath. His physical condition prevented him from undergoing invasive valve surgery, so he sought other solutions that would improve his health and offer him the same quality of life he previously enjoyed.

A Minneapolis Heart Institute® cardiologist in an outreach clinic informed Robert about the new research procedure called RADAR being piloted by the Foundation. In lieu of open heart surgery and the difficult recovery period that follows, Robert elected to undergo this catheterization and radiation procedure. After a few days, he was able to return home and soon resume his daily activities.

Robert is now back singing with the Troubadours, a community men’s chorus, as a first tenor. His blood flow has greatly improved, allowing him to walk more, sleep better and enjoy conversations with his friends – the simple things that most of us take for granted truly make a difference for Robert.

“ I was told that I was not in good enough physical condition to undergo surgery. This new

research procedure worked wonders and now I’m back singing with the Troubadours.”

There’s still so much left to discover. Your gifts improve cardiovascular health in our community.

Ensuring Accurate Diagnosis for Appropriate Cardiovascular Care

More women die each year from heart disease than men, yet a much lower percentage of women are diagnosed and given treatment in a timely and effective manner. This is due to a knowledge gap among the general public and medical communities regarding the unique heart health risk factors and disease symptoms experienced by women.

The Minneapolis Heart Institute Foundation is committed to discovering the most effective methods of heart disease diagnosis and treatment specific to women. Historically, women have comprised only 25% of participants in all heart-related clinical research studies indicating that more investigation is necessary. To this end, the Women’s Support Group was piloted as an approach for reducing feelings of isolation in women recovering from a heart attack, which is a serious risk factor. Another current pilot study is testing the efficacy of three stress intervention techniques including social support, web-based strategies and the practice of mindfulness meditation.

By adding to the body of cardiovascular disease research specific to women, the Foundation is directly improving the health and quality of life for mothers, daughters and their entire families.

Fact: 8,000,000 American women are currently living with heart disease and 6,000,000 of them have already experienced a heart attack or angina.

As a supporter of Foundation research and education, you are helping change the face of heart disease.

...is female, 51% of the time.

A competitive college swimmer and physically active mother of four, Kim at age 36 knew something was wrong when she experienced long-lasting flu-like symptoms and felt winded after climbing a flight of stairs. She went for a stress test and was told that her negative results were probably anxiety driven. Given her elevated cholesterol levels and state of distress, Kim’s husband insisted on calling a cardiologist who diagnosed that Kim was indeed suffering a heart attack.

After her recovery, Kim found it difficult to find support from other young women who shared her experience. She felt alone and unprepared to deal both mentally and emotionally with her heart disease. Six years later, she had another severe cardiac arrest, after which she joined the Women’s Support Group – a pilot program offered by the Minneapolis Heart Institute Foundation. This care group provided the support she had been seeking, as well as education from experienced cardiologists.

Today, Kim is enjoying her active life and has become an activist for educating others about the unique heart disease risks and symptoms associated with women.

“ They thought it was just anxiety – but it proved to be a heart attack. We all need to better

understand how heart disease affects women.”

Innovating the Next Level of Cardiovascular Treatment

The Minneapolis Heart Institute Foundation is identifying and educating the professional community about less costly and less invasive clinical practices to enhance quality of life and reduce mortality associated with heart disease.

Having created the country’s largest database of patient CT angiogram images, the Foundation is helping to construct protocol guidelines, train physicians and write board examinations for using advanced imaging techniques to diagnose and treat cardiovascular risks before they become disabling. The financial impact of these new medical practices is significant. Dr. Robert Schwartz, Director of Pre-Clinical Research and Imaging, estimates that heart scans and preventative actions range from $800 to $2,500 per patient, versus the average $50,000 spent on post-heart attack surgery and care. The Foundation is working to identify and prevent cardiovascular disease at the earliest possible stage.

Dr. Alan Hirsch is leading a 20 site clinical trial (the CLEVER study) evaluating the benefit, risk and economic impact of leveraging angioplasty, exercise and pharmacologic therapies in lieu of more invasive surgical practices to treat peripheral arterial disease (PAD) – a condition which can cause pain and, in severe cases, result in the loss of a limb. Clinical research and education initiatives like these are changing the way that heart disease is prevented, diagnosed and treated.

Fact: Peripheral arterial disease affects 8,000,000 Americans. Diagnosis is critical and those with PAD have a 4-5 times higher risk of heart attack or stroke.

Many donors like you are creating a lasting legacy by making endowed gifts.

...is being treated in new ways.

Don, a widower of seven years, is accustomed to taking care of his daily needs. When severe leg cramps made it no longer possible to go shopping or do yard work, he sought medical treatment. Twice, cardiovascular procedures targeted at alleviating the pain had to be aborted due to his physical condition.

Then, Don met Dr. Alan Hirsch and learned about the CLEVER trial he was conducting for individuals suffering symptoms similar to his own. Don joined the program and began a regular regimen of cardiac rehab therapy that included walking an hour on a treadmill three times a week in combination with taking a drug to dilate his femoral arteries, allowing the blood to flow more freely to his feet.

After just six months, stress tests showed that Don had increased his ability from walking just four minutes on a level grade to over 14 minutes on an incline. He no longer experiences leg pain and is now able to enjoy yard work, fishing and playing with his four grandchildren. Don continues to walk on his treadmill and is grateful for regaining the ability to once again be pain free.

“ My leg cramps prevented me from doing the daily activities that allowed me to live

independently. The CLEVER trial helped me realize that simple exercise and

medication could make a huge difference.”

Education Improves Our Future

At the Minneapolis Heart Institute Foundation, research and education practices inform one another and in concert, improve the health and care of individuals with cardiovascular disease. In 2007, the Foundation added new professional education offerings to its already strong base of community education initiatives. The Foundation educated hundreds of health professionals on the latest cardiovascular research protocols and findings through national Level One trainings, a national satellite symposium on refractory angina and numerous local programs.

At the same time, the Foundation conducted screenings and health presentations at over 260 sites and reached nearly 5,000 4th graders across the state of Minnesota through the HiTECH Heart program. Development of an interactive electronic curriculum for K-12 students is underway, as well as a new web-site providing online communities and health behavior change programs. Moving forward, the Foundation’s educational approach is to develop programs that reach more people, have greater impact and significantly improve the overall health of our community.

Planned Giving Enhances Your Impact

What do you want your legacy to be? What will be your impact on heart disease?

At the Minneapolis Heart Institute Foundation, we aim to understand your needs first and then match your wishes with the goals of the Foundation. Our role, in collaboration with your advisors, is to help you integrate personal planning and philanthropic goals with tax and financial planning objectives.

This is the role that Michael Schroeder fulfilled for Dick Haag, a generous life-long donor who expressed an interest in endowing the research of the Minneapolis Heart Institute Foundation. This interest grew out of a friendship with the late auto dealer Rudy Luther. Both Dick and Rudy set plans in place to strengthen the financial base for future cardiovascular research.

Dick, with the assistance of his attorney and accountant, established a Charitable Gift Annuity that pays an income to him during his lifetime. At his death, the annuity will distribute the assets to the Foundation to perpetuate its clinical research.

We look forward to assisting you as you define your own personal legacy plan. To better understand how a planned gift might be structured to benefit you and provide a lasting legacy at the Minneapolis Heart Institute Foundation, please contact us at 612-863-3833.
