摘要:
A system and method for temporary programming of an implantable medical device. The system and method include a repeater uploading temporary programming and instructions to a temporary memory of the device and then instructing the device to operate according to the temporary instructions. If during a first time period, the device is not in continuous periodic communication with the repeater, the device automatically reverts to operation under the normal operating instructions. At the end of the first time period, the caregiver or the patient may decide to revert to the normal programming. During a second time period, the device operates according to the temporary programming unless the caregiver or the patient instructs the device to revert to the normal programming, or the device fails to receive a periodic continuation signal from the repeater. Adverse health affects to the patient may also trigger the device to revert to the normal programming during either the first or second time period.

摘要:
This document discusses, among other things, cardiac rhythm management systems, devices, and methods providing an exercise test interface. A patient exercise episode is identified using at least one predetermined criteria. Data associated with the episode is obtained. A summary of the episode is displayed for a user. The displayed summary includes at least one prognostic indicator obtained from the data associated with the episode. Examples of prognostic indicators include, among other things, ectopic beats, runs of ectopic beats, rate of decrease of heart rate during a post-exercise recovery portion of the episode, a maximum attained heart rate for comparison to a maximum age-predicted heart rate, as well as other prognostic indicators.
摘要:
An implantable medical device (IMD) comprising a controller adapted to execute instructions included in firmware, a programmable neural therapy source adapted to provide programmable electrical neural stimulation therapy to at least one neural stimulation electrode, and a state machine included in hardware circuitry coupled to the programmable neural therapy source. When neural therapy is initiated by a firmware instruction, the state machine is configured to automatically apply power to the neural therapy source when neural therapy is initiated by a firmware instruction and automatically remove power from the neural therapy source when neural therapy is terminated by a firmware instruction.
摘要:
An apparatus and method for verifying capture by first and second pacing pulses in which an evoked response waveform recorded during a pacing event is compared with template waveforms representing capture by the first, second, and both pacing pulses. The evoked response is then classified as representing a type of capture represented by a template waveform if the evoked response waveform highly correlates with one template waveform and has correlation values with the other template waveforms within specified bounds.
摘要:
Methods and systems involve multi-chamber cardiac capture detection utilizing sensing during a cross-chamber refractory period. First and second pacing pulses are delivered to first and second heart chamber. Capture or non-capture of the second heart chamber is determined. Sensing in the first heart chamber is performed to sense for cross-chamber propagation initiated by the second pacing pulse. Capture of the first chamber is detected if capture of the second heart chamber is detected and if the cross-chamber propagation is not detected.
摘要:
A method for operating a cardiac rhythm management device used for cardiac resynchronization therapy in which the storage of diagnostic data is triggered by detection of a condition indicating that the effectiveness of the therapy has been compromised. Such diagnostic data may be electrograms or marker/interval data acquired from the sensing channels of the device.
摘要:
An apparatus and method for verifying capture by a pacing pulse in which a test depolarization waveform recorded during a pacing event is compared with a template waveform representing capture by the pacing pulse. Capture verification in this manner may be used in pacemakers having multiple pacing channels for the atrial and/or ventricles where the multiple paces can interfere with conventional sensing of evoked responses in order to verify capture.
