Enhancing Human Ventricular Contractility, Perfusion, And Rhythm By Enhancing Laminar Coordination Of Ventricular Myocardial Repolarization By The His-Purkinje System
US Patent:
2004005, Mar 18, 2004
Filed:
Sep 13, 2002
Appl. No.:
10/241857
Inventors:
David Craig - Burnsville NC, US
William McGuinn - Columbia MD, US
William McGuinn - Columbia MD, US
International Classification:
A61N001/36
US Classification:
607/009000
Abstract:
New in the art of medicine in this invention is the ability to improve cardiac output and transmural ventricular perfusion and diminish ventricular arrhythmias in the human heart by correcting a common defect in electrical regulation of the systole of the ventricles, this being a defect in a previously unknown mechanism, namely laminar coordination of ventricular repolariation by the His-Purkinje system.
Methods For Monitoring Laminar Coordination In Ventricular Repolarization And For Utilizing The Results Of Said Monitoring In Cardiac Disease Diagnosis And Treatment
US Patent:
7904154, Mar 8, 2011
Filed:
Jun 14, 2006
Appl. No.:
11/454108
Inventors:
David Franklin Craig - Burnsville NC, US
International Classification:
A61B 5/02, A61B 5/0452, A61N 1/18
US Classification:
607 9, 600508
Abstract:
Methods for monitoring laminar coordination in ventricular repolarization and for utilizing the results of such monitoring in cardiac disease diagnosis and treatment. The methods include providing and administering a cardiac function test such as an EKG for examining human cardiac function. The cardiac function test in turn includes making a measurement of at least one marker. Healthy laminar coordination during repolarization is indicated by a measurement which meets an indicated threshold of measurement for the at least one marker. Malfunctioning laminar coordination is indicated by a measurement that does not meet the indicated threshold of measurement for the at least one marker. Malfunctioning laminar coordination is detected by locating a measurement that does not meet the indicated threshold of measurement for the at least one marker as an indication of malfunctioning laminar coordination within results of the cardiac function test. An electronic pacemaker may be employed as a treatment modality.
