20090204113 | High Density Atrial Fibrillatrion Cycle Length (AFCL) Detection and Mapping System - Systems and methods to assist in locating the focus of an atrial fibrillation include the association of atrial fibrillation cycle length values and statistics relating thereto with temporal locations on an electrogram of a given electrode, and/or the coordination of electrode locations with respective the spectral analyses of electrogram signals and further parameters and statistics relating thereto. Ablation therapy can proceed under guidance of such information. | 08-13-2009 |
20100249626 | DISCRIMINATING BETWEEN TACHYCARDIAS OF VENTRICULAR ORIGIN AND SUPRA ENTRICULAR ORIGIN, METHODS AND APPARATUS - An active medical device able to discriminate between tachycardias of ventricular origin and of supra-ventricular origin. Two distinct temporal components (UnipV, BipV) are obtained corresponding to two EGM signals of ventricular electrograms. The diagnosis operates in at least two-dimensional space to determine, from the variations of one temporal component as a function of the other temporal component, a 2D characteristic representative of a heart beat and, this, for a reference beat collected in Sinus Rhythm (SR) in the absence of tachycardia episodes, and for a heart beat in Tachycardia. The discrimination of the tachycardia type, VT or SVT, is then realized by a classifier operating a comparison of the two current and reference 2D characteristics. | 09-30-2010 |
20130324871 | SYSTEM AND METHODS FOR COMPUTING ACTIVATION MAPS - Systems and methods can be used to determine activation information for points along a surface or selected region of interest. In one example, a computer-readable medium having computer-executable instructions for performing a method that includes computing a local activation vector based on relative timing among electrical signals corresponding to neighboring points of a plurality of points on a surface envelope. An activation time can be computed for each of the plurality of points as a function of corresponding local activation vectors. | 12-05-2013 |

20140200467 | COMPOSITE SINGULARITY MAPPING - A method can include storing a plurality of data sets including values computed for each of a plurality of points for a given spatial region of tissue, the values in each of the data sets characterizing electrical information for each respective point of the plurality of points for a different time interval. The method can also include combining the values computed for each of a plurality of points in a first interval, corresponding to a first map, with the values for computed for each of the respective plurality of points in another interval and to normalize the combined values relative to a common scale. The method can also include generating a composite map for the given spatial region based on the combined values that are normalized. | 07-17-2014 |
20140200473 | FOCAL POINT IDENTIFICATION AND MAPPING - A method can determine one or more origins of focal activation. The method can include computing phase for the electrical signals at a plurality of nodes distributed across a geometric surface based on the electrical data across time. The method can determine whether or not a given candidate node of the plurality of nodes is a focal point based on the analyzing the computed phase and magnitude of the given candidate node. A graphical map can be generated to visualize focal points detected on the geometric surface. | 07-17-2014 |
20140200822 | WAVE FRONT DETECTION FOR ELECTROPHYSIOLOGICAL SIGNALS - A method to calculate and visualize dynamic wave front propagation of electrical signals on a geometric surface is described. Wave front locations are identified on the geometric surface between each identified pair of adjacent nodes on the geometric surface. A graphical map can be generated to represent the identified wave front locations on at least a portion of the geometric surface. | 07-17-2014 |
20140200874 | MULTI-PARAMETER PHYSIOLOGICAL MAPPING - A map generator can be programmed to generate a multi-parameter graphical map by encoding at least two different physiological parameters for a geometric surface, corresponding to tissue of a patient, using different color components of a multi-dimensional color model such that each of the different physiological parameters is encoded by at least one of the different color components. | 07-17-2014 |
