News:
Cambridge Heart Completes Development of New MTWA Module

510(K) Filed with the Food and Drug Administration

TEWKSBURY, Mass., Feb 11, 2010 (BUSINESS WIRE) -- Cambridge Heart, Inc. (OTCBB-
CAMH - News), today announced that the Company has completed the development
phase of its Microvolt T-wave Alternans (MTWA) OEM Module, and has submitted a
510(k) application for regulatory approval with the U.S. Food and Drug
Administration (FDA). The module is the centerpiece of the Company's new business
model that involves partnering with leading stress test equipment manufacturers
to broaden the distribution and use of MTWA technology.

"We are very pleased with our progress and pace in achieving this important
milestone," said Ali Haghighi-Mood, Cambridge Heart's President and CEO. "With
the completion of the development work and our FDA regulatory submission, we are
one step closer to making our Microvolt T-wave Alternans technology available to
more physicians and their patients."

The MTWA test, administered in much the same way as a stress test, is a
non-invasive diagnostic tool that can identify the presence of a subtle
alternating pattern in the ECG which has been shown to be a significant risk
factor for sudden cardiac arrest.
