1 CleanCision For hospital leaders who want to gain control over the sources of surgical site infection

2 Surgical site infection, especially in high risk abdominal and colorectal surgery, is a constant threat to patients and hospitals. PATIENTS 15 days 27.8% 29% 8 days 18% 6.8% 3 out of 20 patients undergoing high-risk abdominal surgery will develop an infection 1,2,3 MEDIAN LENGTH OF STAY 4 READMISSION 5 ICU ADMISSION 6 PATIENT SATISFACTION REOPERATION 2X RISK OF DEATH 6 With SSI Without SSI HOSPITAL $10B spent annually treating SSI 7 ~$500k annual CMS penalty per hospital 9 Average cost per SSI $19,000 5,8 Negative hospital publicity Lower SSI rates will reduce cost of care. Project the potential savings: Current SSI rate 1,2,3 15% Number of Procedures* SSI Cost / Episode 5,8 SSI Reduction 10 TOTAL SAVINGS x x x = 300 $19, o00.61 $521,550 *estimate the number of high-risk abdominal surgeries in your facility

3 Wound is the primary cause of SSI. Controlling it is a constant challenge. Nearly 50% of abdominal incisions are contaminated during surgery 11 No bacterial No bacterial 0% Risk of SSI 11 Bacterial Bacterial 20%+ Risk of SSI 11 Current technology does not adequately support infection control efforts to eliminate, creating critical gaps that leave patients vulnerable to infection. Incomplete skin antisepsis introduces bacteria into the incision 12 Passive wound protection can t clear invading bacteria Disruptive manual irrigation can spread 13 Prophylactic antibiotic concentrations can fall below effective levels 14

4 Reverse Active Cleansing Technology Continuous, consistent clearance therapy delivered during surgery Easily deployed to retract the incision, CleanCision's microfluidic membrane is connected to a surgeon-selected fluid source and suction that delivers an active clearance therapy which consistently and continuously cleanses and removes from the incision. By removing the, CleanCision helps eliminate the root cause of infection. 15

5 Fight Defend Intuitive Approach Designed by surgeons and infection control experts CleanCision integrates proven best practices into existing surgical workflows. Sterile irrigant solution inlet Suction Outlet Suction ring removes contaminants Fluid irrigates incision Retracts & protects widest range of incisions More complete skin antisepsis, reverses pre-existing skin 16 Active removal of 15 Reduced CFU count / inoculum of infectious at the incision 16 Combines wound irrigation and wound protection, two independently proven practices for reducing SSI 17,18 Optimizes wound healing environment, suppressing bacterial proliferation after closure 19 Powerful Results 66% 61% Reduction in Contamination 16 Reduction in SSI 10 % Contamination 50% 25% 0 35% p< % Control CleanCision % SSI Expected 9.5% p = 0.02 CleanCision 3.7%* *Zero deep SSI
