Continuous outpatinet ecg monitoring system

Номер: US20120101396A1
Принадлежит: KONINKLIJKE PHILIPS ELECTRONICS NV

An ECG monitoring system for ambulatory patients includes a small multi-electrode patch that adhesively attaches to the chest of a patient. A reusable battery-powered ECG monitor clips onto the patch and receives patient electrical signals from the electrodes of the patch. A processor continuously processes received ECG signals and stores the signals in memory in the monitor. The processor also analyzes the received ECG signals for predefined arrhythmia. If an arrhythmia is detected, a wireless transceiver in the ECG monitor transmits the event information and an ECG strip to a cellphone handset. The cellphone handset automatically relays the event information and ECG strip to a monitoring center for further diagnosis and necessary intervention.

Enhanced sensing by an implantable medical device in the presence of an interfering signal from an external source

Номер: US20120108908A1
Автор: Michael L. Ellingson
Принадлежит: MEDTRONIC INC

An implantable medical device (IMD) adjusts a sensing configuration of a sensing module prior to or immediately subsequent to entering an environment having an external source that generates the interfering signal. The IMD may, for example, adjust a sampling frequency, resolution, input range, gain, bandwidth, filtering parameters, or a combination of these or other sensing parameters of the sensing module. These adjustments enable the sensing module to obtain a more detailed representation of the sensed signals, including the noise components of the sensed signals caused by the interfering signal. Without having an adequate representation of the noise components of the sensed signal, it is difficult to separate the noise components of the sensed signal from the cardiac electrical signal.

A device for gathering data has first and second electrodes. The first electrode is coupled to a surface of interest, and the second electrode is coupled to “everything else” or “the air”. The first electrode is shielded from the second, and from most sources of parasitic capacitance, by a shield that is driven by an active driver that drives the shield to track, and ideally to match, the instantaneous potential of the electrode. The second electrode is likewise shielded in a similar way from most sources of parasitic capacitance. These shields likewise help to limit the extent to which RFI from the device electronics couples with either of the electrodes. In this way the sensing device achieves a markedly better signal-to-noise ratio at frequency bands of interest.

The feedback circuitry may provide a feedback signal to the current-to-voltage converter. The feedback signal, based at least in part on the output of the current-to-voltage converter during the dark periods, may cause the current-to-voltage converter to substantially exclude an ambient light component of the photocurrent. As a result, the current-to-voltage converter may employ a higher transimpedance without distorting the output voltage signal due to oversaturation, and thus may achieve a higher SNR.

In the method, the beat rate of heart is measured with a sensor or previously measured heart rate data are input for providing heart rate data and the energy consumption of a person is determined on the basis of heart rate data. According to the invention, a first threshold value is selected for the mass of the person and in case the mass of the person is larger than the first threshold value, energy consumption is calculated using a formula taking into account the deviation of the person's mass from the said first threshold value. The invention allows getting more accurate energy consumption estimates especially for overweight persons.

Systems and methods for remote monitoring of signals sensed by an implantable medical device during an mri

Номер: US20120226140A1
Принадлежит: Pacesetter Inc

Systems and methods are provided for allowing an implantable medical device, such as pacemaker, to properly sense electrophysiological signals and hemodynamic signals within a patient during a magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) procedure. Systems and methods are also provided for allowing the implantable medical device to transmit the sensed data to an external monitoring system during the MRI procedure so that attending medical personnel can closely monitor the health of the patient and the operation of the implantable device during the MRI. These improvements provide the attending personnel with information needed to determine whether the MRI should be suspended in response to induced tachyarrhythmias or other adverse conditions within the patient.

Apparatus and method for uroflowmetry

Номер: US20120226196A1
Принадлежит: Individual

The present invention generally pertains to an apparatus and a method for uroflowmetry. Uroflowmetry can generally be defined as the collection and measurement of a patient's urination for the purpose of determining urine flow data that are necessary to analyze the patient's urination by comparing the patient's urine flow data to standardized urine flow data of healthy individuals. The present invention allows medical professionals to non-invasively diagnose a patient's urination by collecting, measuring and computing urine flow data to determine if any medical conditions and symptoms that affect urine flow are present. The within invention is designed and constructed in such a manner as to allow for the collection and measurement of urination to be done quickly, easily and at a reduced cost.

Medical implanatble lead with fixation detection

Номер: US20120232373A1
Принадлежит: St Jude Medical AB

The invention relates to a medical implantable lead of the kind being adapted to be implanted into a human or animal body for monitoring and/or controlling of an organ inside the body. The lead comprises in a distal end a tubular header ( 3 ) inside which a shaft ( 7 ) is rotatable as well as extendable and retractable arranged and carries in a distal end a combined fixation means and electrode member in form of a helix ( 4 ), which is provided with a first contact surface being electrically connectible to a connector at the proximal end of the lead by means of an electric conductor ( 8 ), and which by means of the shaft is rotatable in relation to the lead and extendable out from the distal end to be able to fixate the distal end of the lead to the organ by being screwed into the tissue. The shaft also carries a second contact surface ( 13 ) being positioned on or adjacent a proximal portion of the helix and being connectible to a connector at the proximal end of the lead by means of an electric conductor ( 8 ). The lead comprises a conduction controlling means ( 14 ), which at least during an initial stage after implantation is capable of render the first contact surface electrically inactive and which is capable of render the first contact surface electrically active after the initial stage. By means of the inventive lead it is possible to detect whether the helix is sufficient screwed into the tissue ( 12 ) or not.

Pressure sensing catheter

Номер: US20120234434A1
Принадлежит: Gentera Holdings LLC

This invention provides a pressure sensing catheter, and method for using the same, which eliminates the practitioners' need to fill the catheter with fluid manually prior to insertion, and thereby increases the accuracy and ease of the overall pressure-sensing procedure. The illustrative catheter includes, in its proximal end, a transducer base or housing that is permanently attached to the catheter shaft. The base includes, inserted thereinto, one or more miniaturized pressure transducer assemblies, which are in fluid communication with corresponding pressure lumens that extend down the shaft and are in communication with one or more predetermined balloons by discrete channels or ports, which provide a fluid passage between the interior space of the balloon and the corresponding pressure lumen. The integral assembly includes a predetermined, previously installed charge of fluid that extends from the transducer, through the corresponding pressure lumen and into the interior volume of the sensing balloon.
