Our technologies and processes produced 108 new U.S. patents in 2010, which indicates the vitality of our research and development streams. As we continue to expand our role in the lives of caregivers and patients and in the operations of healthcare networks, we expect to make larger investments in innovation that will help us continue our exceptional track record of growth as we become an even stronger global leader in the medical technology industry.
