As Critical Care transitions to an independent company, we will continue to benefit from the expertise and experience of 4,000+ dedicated global employees, a vibrant innovation engine with strong investment in our future pipeline, and strong sales growth and profitability. We are well-positioned to build upon our category leadership as we continue to launch new solutions powered by A.I. to clinicians, and expand into new care settings.
