摘要:
A hospitalization management system including a heart failure analyzer that receives diagnostic data including at least sensor data representative of one or more physiological signals sensed from a hospitalized patient using one or more sensors and assesses risk of rehospitalization for the patient using the diagnostic data. The outcome of the risk assessment is used during and following the patient's hospitalization for reducing the risk of rehospitalization.

Systems, devices, and methods detect or classify tachyarrhythmias or make a therapy decision. A tachyarrhythmia can be classified using a rhythm discrimination parameter having a value. In certain examples, the value of the rhythm discrimination parameter can be adjusted using a relationship between a detected atrial rate and a detected ventricular rate, or the value can be adjusted using information about at least one of the atrial rate or the ventricular rate in addition to using the relationship between the atrial rate and the ventricular rate. These techniques can improve the specificity of arrhythmia detection or classification, allow anti-tachyarrhythmia therapy to be better tailored to the particular tachyarrhythmia, or provide more automatic operation making it easier for a physician to use an implantable device.
摘要:
The present invention is directed to a method of forming a nonwoven fabric, which exhibits a plurality of three-dimensional images whereby the fabric is comprised of at least a first and second three-dimensional image that are dissimilar from one another. The three-dimensional images may be imparted into the fabric in a co-planar arrangement, multi-planar arrangement, or by utilizing both arrangements within the same fabric. Further, the present invention contemplates a fabric comprised of a plurality of three-dimensional images which can provide the fabric with various physical and/or aesthetic performances.
摘要:
Systems and methods are described for classifying a cardiac rhythm. A cardiac rhythm is classified using a classification process that includes a plurality of cardiac rhythm discriminators. Each rhythm discriminator provides an independent classification of the cardiac rhythm. The classification process is modified if the modification is likely to produce enhanced classification results. The rhythm is reclassified using the modified classification process.
摘要:
An algorithm for detection of tachycardias and for discriminating between supraventricular tachycardia (SVT) and ventricular tachycardia (VT) when a 1:1 tachycardia condition is present that can be implemented in an implantable cardiac rhythm management device. Variability measures of AV and VA intervals during the tachycardia are computed and used to distinguish between SVT and VT.
摘要:
An electroactive photonic device (D) comprises a substrate (1), at least one cathode layer (2), at least one anode layer (4), and at least one layer of active material (3) based on organic compounds and interposed at least partially between the anode and cathode layers (2, 4). The layers (2, 3, 4) are arranged on the substrate (1) in a predetermined configuration such that the device (D) can convert luminous energy into electrical energy or vice versa. The substrate (1) is made of float glass.
摘要:
This document discusses, among other things, systems, devices, and methods for detecting or classifying tachyarrhythmias or making a therapy decision. In one example, a rate-dependent threshold is used for comparing atrial and ventricular rates for classifying a tachyarrhythmia as a ventricular tachyarrhythmia (VT) or a supraventricular tachyarrhythmia (SVT). In another example, the classification uses an atrial rate cutoff value, a ventricular rate cutoff value, or both. In another example, a tachyarrhythmia detection is tested over a time window with a duration that is automatically adjusted as a substantially continuously monotonically decreasing function of duration vs. rate. These techniques improve the specificity of arrhythmia detection or classification, allow anti-tachyarrhythmia therapy to be better tailored to the particular tachyarrhythmia, or provide more automatic operation making it easier for a physician to use an implantable device.
