    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: Cardiac monitoring and/or stimulation methods and systems provide monitoring, defibrillation and/or pacing therapies. A signal processor receives a plurality of composite signals associated with a plurality of sources, separates a signal using a source separation algorithm, and identifies a cardiac signal using a selected vector. The signal processor may iteratively separate signals from the plurality of composite signals until the cardiac signal is identified. The selected vector may be updated if desired or necessary. A method of signal separation involves detecting a plurality of composite signals at a plurality of locations, separating a signal using source separation, and selecting a vector that provides a cardiac signal. The separation may include a principal component analysis and/or an independent component analysis. Vectors may be selected and updated based on changes of position and/or orientation of implanted components and changes in patient parameters such as patient condition, cardiac signal-to-noise ratio, and disease progression.

    摘要: Cardiac arrhythmias are classified based on the morphology of the arrhythmia episode beats. Templates are formed using morphological features of the cardiac beats of the episode. The arrhythmia episode is classified as a monomorphic tachyarrhythmia or polymorphic tachyarrhythmia based on the one or more templates. The arrhythmia episode may be classified based on a number templates formed from the arrhythmia episode. The templates are formed by determining a measure of similarity between morphological features of a cardiac beat to a template. The similarities can be determined based on a pairing rule that determines which beat morphologies are compared. Selection of therapy for treating the arrhythmia episode may depend on the historical success of a therapy at mitigating previous arrhythmias of the same type as the arrhythmia episode.

    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 closed-loop cardiac resynchronization therapy using cardiac activation sequence information. Devices and methods involve sensing a plurality of composite cardiac signals using a plurality of electrodes, the electrodes configured for implantation in a patient. A source separation is performed using the sensed plurality of composite cardiac signals, producing one or more cardiac signal vectors associated with all or a portion of one or more cardiac activation sequences. A cardiac resynchronization therapy is adjusted using one or both of the one or more cardiac signal vectors and the signals associated with the one or more cardiac signal vectors. In further embodiments, the cardiac resynchronization therapy may be initiated, terminated, or one or more parameters of the resynchronization therapy may be altered.
