Automatic capture verification using electrocardiograms sensed from multiple implanted electrodes
InactiveUS7509170B2Heart stimulatorsDiagnostic recording/measuringImplantable ElectrodesCardiac monitoring
Cardiac monitoring and / or stimulation methods and systems that provide one or more of monitoring, diagnosing, defibrillation, and pacing. Cardiac signal separation is employed for automatic capture verification using cardiac activation sequence information. Devices and methods sense composite cardiac signals using implantable electrodes. A source separation is performed using the composite signals. One or more signal vectors are produced that are associated with all or a portion of one or more cardiac activation sequences based on the source separation. A cardiac response to the pacing pulses is classified using characteristics associated with cardiac signal vectors and the signals associated with the vectors. Further embodiments may involve classifying the cardiac response as capture or non-capture, fusion or intrinsic cardiac activity. The characteristics may include an angle or an angle change of the cardiac signal vectors, such as a predetermined range of angles of the one or more cardiac signal vectors.

Cardiac response classification using retriggerable classification windows
Methods and devices for classifying a cardiac response to pacing involve establishing a retriggerable cardiac response classification window. A first cardiac response classification window is established subsequent to delivery of a pacing pulse. A cardiac signal following the pacing stimulation is sensed in the first classification window. A second cardiac response classification may be triggered if a trigger characteristic is detected in the first classification window. The cardiac signal is sensed in the second classification window if the second classification window is established. The cardiac response to the pacing stimulation is determined based on characteristics of the cardiac signal. The cardiac response may be determined to be one of a captured response, a non-captured response; a non-captured response added to an intrinsic beat, and a fusion / pseudofusion beat, for example.

Methods and systems for managing fusion and noise in cardiac pacing response classification
Methods and systems for detecting noise in cardiac pacing response classification processes involve determining that a cardiac response classification is possibly erroneous if unexpected signal content is detected. The unexpected signal content may comprise signal peaks that have polarity opposite to the polarity of peaks used to determine the cardiac response to pacing. Fusion / noise management processes include pacing at a relatively high energy level until capture is detected after a fusion, indeterminate or possibly erroneous pacing response classification is made. The relatively high energy pacing pulses may be delivered until capture is detected or until a predetermined number of paces are delivered.

Atrial retrograde management
ActiveUS20060129199A1Reduce atrial retrograde conductionHeart defibrillatorsHeart stimulatorsAtrial cavityCardiac cycle
Methods and systems for classifying cardiac responses to pacing stimulation and / or preventing retrograde cardiac conduction are described. Following delivery of a pacing pulse to an atrium of the patient's heart during a cardiac cycle, the system senses in the atrium for a retrograde P-wave. The system classifies the atrial response to the pacing pulse based on detection of the retrograde P-wave. The system may also sense for an atrial evoked response and utilize the atrial evoked response in classifying the cardiac pacing response. If capture is not detected, the system may deliver additional atrial pacing pulses to reduce atrial retrograde conduction. A backup pace may be delivered to prevent the atrial retrograde conduction if an atrial evoked response is not detected during a cardiac cycle. Alternatively, retrograde management may involve delaying a next scheduled pace may be until expiration of an atrial effective refractory period.

System and method for using diagnostic pulses in connection with defibrillation therapy
An external defibrillator system is disclosed that generates and applies a diagnostic signal to the patient in conjunction with defibrillation therapy. The diagnostic signal is designed to elicit a physiologic response from the patient's heart, namely, mechanical cardiac response and electrical cardiac response, electrical cardiac response only, or no cardiac response. Depending upon the type of cardiac response detected, the system selects an appropriate resuscitation protocol that considers the likely responsiveness of the patient to defibrillation therapy. In one practical embodiment, a stimulus signal is applied to patients that show mechanical and electrical capture in response to the diagnostic signal. The stimulus signal maintains the mechanical capture (and, therefore, perfusion) for a period of time prior to the delivery of a defibrillation pulse.

If a first characteristic of the cardiac signal achieves a threshold value, the system continues to sense the cardiac signal and detects a second characteristic. The cardiac pacing response is determined based on at least one of the first and the second cardiac signal characteristics.

Methods and systems for management of atrial retrograde conduction and pacemaker mediated tachyarrhythmia threshold
Methods and systems for classifying cardiac responses to pacing stimulation and managing retrograde conduction and pacemaker mediated tachyarrhythmia are described.
