摘要:
A system and method of identifying a driver of a source associated with a heart rhythm disorder are disclosed. Data is accessed from a plurality of sensors representing biological activity in the heart. A local first region of the heart that has repeating activation and that controls a second distant region of the heart for at least a predetermined number of beats is identified. The first local region is assigned as a driver of a source of the heart rhythm disorder, the source including the first local region and the second distant region.

An example system and method of locating a source of a heart rhythm disorder are disclosed. In accordance with the method, a first pair of cardiac signals is processed to define a first coefficient associated with variability of the first pair of signals at a first region of the heart. Further, a second pair of cardiac signals is processed to define a second coefficient associated with variability of the second pair of signals at a second region of the heart. Thereafter, the first coefficient of variability is compared to the second coefficient of variability to determine a direction towards the source of the rhythm disorder.
摘要:
A system and method for identifying and treating a source of a heart rhythm disorder are provided in which a spatial element associated with a region of the heart is selected. Progressive rotational activations or progressive focal activations are determined in relation to the selected spatial element. A plurality of indexes of progressive rotational activations or progressive focal activations over time is formed. One or more indexes are selected from the plurality of indexes that indicate consistency of the successive rotational activations or the progressive focal activations in relation to a portion of the region of the heart.

A system and method to target a biological rhythm disorder include processing cardiac signals via a computing device to determine a shape in a region of tissue defined by a source associated with the biological rhythm disorder that migrates spatially on or within the shape, and identifying at least one portion of the tissue proximate to the shape to enable selective modification of the at least one portion of tissue in order to terminate or alter the biological rhythm disorder.

摘要:
An example system and method of reconstructing cardiac activation information are disclosed. An analysis signal and a reference signal are processed to determine whether there is a first point of change in a first selected-order derivative of the analysis signal with respect to a first selected-order derivative of the reference signal above a first threshold. The analysis signal and the reference signal are processed to determine whether there is a second point of change in a second selected-order derivative of the analysis cardiac signal above a second threshold. An activation onset time is assigned in the analysis cardiac signal at a point based on a mathematical association of the first point of change and the second point of change to define cardiac activation indicating a beat in the analysis cardiac signal.

Provided is a system and method to target a biological rhythm disorder, such as a heart rhythm disorder. The system and method include processing cardiac signals via a computing device to determine a shape in a region of tissue defined by a source associated with the biological rhythm disorder that migrates spatially on or within the shape, and identifying at least one portion of the tissue proximate to the shape to enable selective modification of the at least one portion of tissue in order to terminate or alter the heart rhythm disorder.
摘要:
An example system and method of determining regularity associated with a rhythm disorder of a heart are disclosed. In accordance with the method, a derivative of a first cardiac signal at a plurality of first time points is processed against a derivative of a second cardiac signal at a plurality of second time points to define a plurality of coordinate pairs of the first cardiac signal against the second cardial signal. Thereafter, an index of regularity that exceeds a threshold is determined. The index of regularity indicates an approximate congruence of the plurality of coordinate pairs among the first cardiac signal and the second cardiac signal.
