    摘要: An exemplary method includes detecting a QRS complex using cutaneous electrodes, during the QRS complex, detecting an R-wave of a ventricle using an intracardiac electrode, determining if the R-wave occurred during a first, predetermined percentage of the QRS complex width and, based at least in part on the determining, deciding whether a patient is likely to respond to cardiac resynchronization therapy. Such a method may set the predetermined percentage to approximately 50%. An exemplary model includes a parameter for a percentage for the timing of an EGM R-wave with respect to the total width of an ECG QRS complex. Various other exemplary methods, devices, systems, etc. are also disclosed.

    摘要: Techniques are described for efficiently detecting and distinguishing among cardiac ischemia, hypoglycemia or hyperglycemia based on intracardiac electrogram (IEGM) signals. In one example, a preliminary indication of an episode of cardiac ischemia is detected based on shifts in ST segment elevation within the IEGM. In response, the implanted device then records additional IEGM data for transmission to an external system. The external system analyzes the additional IEGM data to confirm the detection of cardiac ischemia using a more sophisticated analysis procedure exploiting additional detection parameters. In particular, the external system uses detection parameters capable of distinguishing hypoglycemia, hyperglycemia and hyperkalemia from cardiac ischemia, such as QTmax and QTend intervals. Alternatively, the more sophisticated analysis procedure may be performed by the device itself, if it is so equipped. Other examples described herein pertain instead to the detection of atrial fibrillation.

    摘要: Techniques are provided for use with an implantable medical device for detecting and assessing heart failure and for controlling cardiac resynchronization therapy (CRT) based on impedance signals obtained using hybrid impedance configurations. The hybrid configurations exploit right atrial (RA)-based impedance measurement vectors and/or left ventricular (LV)-based impedance measurement vectors. In one example, current is injected between the device case and a ring electrode in the right ventricle (RV) or RA. RA-based impedance values are measured along vectors between the device case and an RA electrode. LV-based impedance values are measured along vectors between the device case and one or more electrodes of the LV. Heart failure and other cardiac conditions are detected and tracked using the measured impedance values. CRT delay parameters are also optimized based impedance. In this manner, multiple hybrid impedance measurement configurations are exploited whereby different vectors are used to inject current and measure impedance.

    摘要: Techniques are provided for configuring filters for reducing heating within pacing/sensing leads of a pacemaker or implantable cardioverter-defibrillator that might occur due to induced currents during a magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) procedure or in the presence of other sources of strong radio frequency (RF) fields. In particular, techniques are provided for selecting inductors and capacitors for use in LC filters while taking into account the tolerances of the component devices, as well as the target impedance of the components and the particular RF frequencies to be filtered.
