    摘要: An atrioventricular delay (AVD) for cardiac pacing therapy is determined based, at least in part, on one or more cardiac activation signals sensed using body-implantable electrodes providing non-local sensing. A conduction delay is estimated using a non-local cardiac activation signal and the AVD is determined based on the conduction delay. Estimating the conduction delay may involve measuring a P-wave width or measuring a QRS complex width of the non-local signal. If multiple signals are sensed, the conduction delay may be estimated from a selected signal or may be estimated by forming a representative signal such as through averaging or other methods. The AVD may be determined as a function of the estimated conduction delay.

    摘要: This document discusses, among other things, systems and methods for automatic electrode integrity management. Interelectrode impedance is measured for various electrode combinations of an implantable cardiac function management device. The impedance data is processed, such as at an external remote server, to determine whether an electrode is failing or has failed, to select an alternate electrode configuration, to alert a physician or patient, to predict a time-to-failure such as by using population data, or to reprogram electrode configuration or other device parameters of the implantable cardiac function management device.

    摘要: Cardiac monitoring and/or stimulation methods and systems that provide one or more of monitoring, diagnosing, defibrillation, and pacing. Cardiac signal separation is employed to detect, monitor, track and/or trend ischemia using cardiac activation sequence information. Ischemia detection may involve sensing composite cardiac signals using implantable electrodes, and performing a signal separation that produces one or more cardiac activation signal vectors associated with one or more cardiac activation sequences. A change in the signal vector may be detected using subsequent separations. The change may be an elevation or depression of the ST segment of a cardiac cycle or other change indicative of myocardial ischemia, myocardial infarction, or other pathological change. The change may be used to predict, quantify, and/or qualify an event such as an arrhythmia, a myocardial infarction, or other pathologic change. Information associated with the vectors may be stored and used to track the vectors.

    摘要: A system comprises a cardiac signal sensing and a processing circuit. The cardiac signal sensing circuit senses a first cardiac signal segment that includes a QRS complex and a second cardiac signal segment that includes a fiducial indicative of local ventricular activation. The processor circuit includes a site activation timer circuit configured to determine a time duration between a fiducial of the QRS complex of the first cardiac signal segment and the fiducial of the second cardiac signal segment. The processor circuit is configured to generate, using the determined time duration, an indication of optimality of placement of one or more electrodes for delivering therapy and provide the indication to at least one of a user or process.

    摘要: Cardiac monitoring and/or stimulation methods and systems provide for monitoring, diagnosing, defibrillation and pacing therapies, or a combination of these capabilities, including cardiac systems incorporating or cooperating with neuro-stimulating devices, drug pumps, or other therapies. Embodiments relate generally to implantable medical devices employing automated cardiac activation sequence monitoring and/or tracking for arrhythmia discrimination. Embodiments are directed to devices and methods involving sensing a plurality of composite cardiac signals using a plurality of implantable electrodes. A source separation is performed using the sensed plurality of composite cardiac signals and the separation produces one or more cardiac signal vectors associated with one or more cardiac activation sequences that is indicative of ischemia. A change of the one or more cardiac signal vectors is detected using the one or more cardiac signal vectors. Cardiac arrhythmias are discriminated using the one or more cardiac signal vectors.
