    摘要: In situations in which an implantable medical device (e.g., a subcutaneous ICD) is co-implanted with a leadless pacing device (LPD), it may be important that the subcutaneous ICD knows when the LPD is delivering pacing, such as anti-tachycardia pacing (ATP). Techniques are described herein for detecting, with the ICD and based on the sensed electrical signal, pacing pulses and adjusting operation to account for the detected pulses, e.g., blanking the sensed electrical signal or modifying a tachyarrhythmia detection algorithm. In one example, the ICD includes a first pace pulse detector configured to obtain a sensed electrical signal and analyze the sensed electrical signal to detect a first type of pulses having a first set of characteristics and a second pace pulse detector configured to obtain the sensed electrical signal and analyze the sensed electrical signal to detect a second type of pulses having a second set of characteristics.

    摘要: An electromotive force estimation method includes steps of: dividing a time series of an electrocardiographic potential to be estimated in a time series of an electromotive force into unit electrocardiographic potential time series such that time series representing electrocardiographic potentials generated by one pulsation of a myocardium are separated from each other; acquiring, for each unit electrocardiographic potential time series, a depolarization electrocardiographic potential time series that is a set of data belonging to a depolarization period, a refractory electrocardiographic potential time series that is a set of data belonging to a refractory period, and a repolarization electrocardiographic potential time series that is a set of data belonging to a repolarization period; estimating a depolarization electromotive force time series indicating an electromotive force at each time point in the depolarization period based on the depolarization electrocardiographic potential time series; estimating a refractory electromotive force time series indicating an electromotive force at each time point of the refractory period based on the refractory electrocardiographic potential time series and an estimation value of the electromotive force at an end time point of the depolarization period; and estimating a repolarization electromotive force time series indicating an electromotive force at each time point of the repolarization period based on the repolarization electrocardiographic potential time series and an estimation value of the electromotive force at an end time point of the refractory period.

    摘要: The present disclosure provides systems and methods for medical imaging. The method may include obtaining a plurality of channels of electrocardiogram (ECG) signals of a heart of a subject; identifying, from the plurality of channels of ECG signals, a target channel of ECG signal, wherein an amplitude of a characteristic wave of the target channel of ECG signal is the maximum amplitude among amplitudes of corresponding characteristic waves of the plurality of channels of ECG signals; and causing, based on the target channel of ECG signal, an imaging device to perform a scan operation on the heart of the subject.
