摘要:
In a data structure such as an electronic document, a location such as an address is entered, rendered, or scanned for as part of text of the data structure. The location is identified and is converted to a hyperlink that targets an application program such as a website. When activated, the hyperlink takes a user to the application program.

A method and system provides for generating a snapshot representative of one beat of a patient's normal cardiac rhythm. Cardiac rate channel signals and shock channel signals are sensed. A fiducial point is determined for a predefined number of the cardiac rate channel signals. A predefined number of the shock channel signals are aligned using the fiducial point. A template is generated using the aligned shock channel signals, whereby the template is representative of one of the patient's normal supra-ventricular conducted cardiac beats. The template is updated on a periodic basis.

Provided herein are implantable systems, and methods for use therewith, for monitoring a patient's fluid accumulation level. A thoracic impedance signal for the patient is obtained. Based on the thoracic impedance signal, a duration metric indicative of a duration of drop of the thoracic impedance signal, a magnitude metric indicative of a magnitude of drop of the thoracic impedance signal, and a rate metric indicative of a rate of drop of the thoracic impedance signal is determined. The patient's fluid accumulation level is monitored based on the duration metric, the magnitude metric and the rate metric.

Techniques are provided for use with an implantable medical device for assessing left ventricular (LV) sphericity and atrial dimensional extent based on impedance measurements for the purposes of detecting and tracking heart failure and related conditions such as volume overload or mitral regurgitation. In some examples described herein, various short-axis and long-axis impedance vectors are exploited that pass through portions of the LV for the purposes of assessing LV sphericity. In other examples, impedance measurements taken along a vector between a right atrial (RA) ring electrode and an LV electrode implanted near the atrioventricular (AV) groove are exploited to assess LA extent, biatrial extent or mitral annular diameter. The assessment techniques can be employed alone or in conjunction with other heart failure detection techniques, such as those based on left atrial pressure (LAP.)

Image editing tools are commonly used to assist with manipulating and saving visual compositions. Many image editing tools provide slicing functionality to create images slices (sub-images) of the visual composition. As provided herein, a slice representation of a visual composition is defined by an arbitrarily chosen set of coordinates within the visual composition. This slice region may be defined independent of other slice regions (e.g. the slice region may or may not overlap, abut, etc. other slice regions). The slice representation comprises the slice region and one or more objects or portions thereof within the slice region. Slice representations may also comprise overlapping objects and/or slice region coordinates. Objects may be manipulated within a slice representation without affecting that object within other slice representations.
摘要:
A system and method for classifying cardiac complexes sensed during a tachycardia episode. A first cardiac signal and a second cardiac signal are sensed, where the first cardiac signal has a voltage. A first cardiac complex and a second cardiac complex of a cardiac cycle are detected in the first and second cardiac signal, respectively. A predetermined alignment feature is identified in the second cardiac complex. A datum is defined, or positioned, at a specified interval from the predetermined alignment feature of the second cardiac complex. Voltage values are then measured from the first cardiac complex at each of two or more measurement intervals from the datum. The voltage values are then compared voltage values measured from NSR cardiac complexes to classify the first cardiac complex is either a ventricular tachycardia complex or a supraventricular tachycardiac complex.

A portable and disposable toilets for temporary use. The toilet has an interlocking foundation formed by a pair of front and rear walls interlocking a pair of sidewalls, and a top support interlocking the foundation defining a sitting area. The toilet may also have a liner with a collection bag attached thereto. The bag has its opening facing up when the liner is used to line the top support for each use. The liner can be adhesively folded closed after each use, thus also sealing the bag to prevent leakage and contamination. The liner may have a pair of loops at both ends, which serves both as a lock onto the top support and as a handle when the liner is folded after each use.
