摘要:
An implantable cardiac device is configured to classify cardiac arrhythmias using a plurality of arrhythmia discrimination algorithms. Data is provided that is associated with a plurality of cardiac arrhythmic episodes for which a cardiac electrical therapy was delivered or withheld by the implantable medical device based on the plurality of arrhythmia discrimination algorithms. A metric for each of the arrhythmic episodes is computed. The metric defines a measure by which the implantable cardiac device properly classified the arrhythmia. Potentially misclassified arrhythmic episodes of the plurality of cardiac arrhythmic episodes for which cardiac electrical therapy was inappropriately delivered or withheld are algorithmically identified using the metric.

摘要:
Methods and systems for arranging and labeling cardiac episodes based on acquired cardiac episode data are described. Cardiac episodes are algorithmically arranged based on one or more discriminating features of the episode data. A user is presented with at least one episode selected from the arrangement of cardiac episodes. The user inputs a label that characterizes the selected episode. The label is algorithmically appended to the data of the selected episode and to other episodes of the arrangement of cardiac episodes based on the discriminating features.

摘要:
Cardiac treatment methods and devices provide for templates representative of past tachyarrythmia events, each template associated with a therapy. Methods involve providing a cardiac waveform representative of a patient's cardiac activity and identifying a portion that indicates an arrhythmic event. A cardiac template corresponding to the portion is generated, and a therapy is associated with the template useful for treating a subsequent arrhythmia. The waveform portion may be identified by a physician using a patient-external device to display the cardiac waveform. The template may be generated by a physician selecting the cardiac waveform, and determining if the therapy associated with the template was satisfactory and/or effective in treating the arrhythmia. Identification may involve matching the event to templates generated using cardiac waveforms other than the patient's cardiac waveforms. The template may be generated in a patient-internal or patient-external medical device such as a programmer, and/or an advanced patient management system.
摘要:
Methods and systems are directed to selecting from a variety of capture verification modes. A plurality of capture verification modes, including a beat by beat capture detection mode and a capture threshold testing mode without intervening beat by beat capture detection is provided. An efficacy of at least one of the capture verification modes is evaluated, and based on the evaluation, a capture verification mode is selected.

摘要:
Approaches for performing capture detection for a heart chamber with backup pacing in a contralateral heart chamber are described. A cardiac signal of the first heart chamber is sensed following delivery of a pacing pulse. The cardiac response of the first heart chamber to the pacing pulse is classified based on one or more features of the sensed cardiac signal. A backup pacing pulse is delivered to a second heart chamber contralateral to the first heart chamber. For example, the timing of the delivery of the backup pacing pulse may be based on the expected or detected timing of the features used to classify the cardiac pacing response. The backup pace may be delivered within a detection window used for sensing the features indicative of the cardiac pacing response.
