    摘要: An implantable medical device is configured so that all of the major components including a housing and attached leads are disposed within the vasculature of a patient. A tether extends from the housing of the device to an implant location where the tether is secured to tissue outside of the vasculature. In this manner, an intravascular medical device may be implanted at a location remote from final placement, delivered via the vasculature and anchored at the initial entry point.

    摘要: An implantable medical device includes two or more pacing output channels coupled to a single unipolar electrode or bipolar electrode pair. The implantable medical device can control each pacing output channel to deliver pacing pulses via the single electrode or electrode pair at different times and with different amplitudes. In some embodiments, the implantable medical device is used to deliver extra-systolic stimulation therapy. In such embodiments, a first pacing output channel can be controlled to deliver pacing pulses via the electrode or electrode pair with an amplitude sufficient to depolarize a chamber of the heart. A second pacing output channel is controlled to deliver extra-systolic pulses, which can have a lower amplitude than the pacing pulses, via the electrode or electrode pair an extra-systolic interval after sensed or paced depolarizations of the chamber. In some embodiments, the implantable medical device delivers ESS therapy and cardiac resynchronization therapy (CRT).

    摘要: The present invention relates to the secure delivery of an extra-systolic stimulation (ESS) therapy to treat cardiac dysfunction that employs atrial and/or ventricular extra-systoles via pacing-like stimulation of the heart. These extra-systoles must be timed correctly to achieve beneficial effects on myocardial mechanics (benefit) while maintaining an extremely low level of risk of arrhythmia induction and excellent ICD-like arrhythmia sensing and detection (security). Further experience with ESS has led to improved implementation methods that depend on better blanking, ESS stimulation timing (of an “extra-systolic interval” or ESI), and ESS therapy delivery options and guidance. These methods may be employed individually or in combinations in an external or implantable ESS therapy delivery device.
