Safety Pacing In Multi-Site Crm Devices

US Patent:
2002008, Jun 27, 2002
Filed:
Dec 26, 2000
Appl. No.:
09/748721
Inventors:
Jeffrey Stahmann - Ramsey MN, US
Andrew Kramer - Stillwater MN, US
Hugh Calkins - Baltimore MD, US
International Classification:
A61N001/362
US Classification:
607/009000
Abstract:
An apparatus and method for providing pacing pulses to a second site when the pacing pulses are inhibited from being provided to a first site. A first cardiac signal and a second cardiac signal are sensed, where both the first and second cardiac signals include indications of cardiac events. A cardiac rate is determined from the cardiac events in one of the first cardiac signal or the second cardiac signal, and pacing pulses are provided to the first cardiac region in order to maintain the cardiac rate at at least a minimum rate value. A pace protection interval starts when a cardiac event is detected in the first cardiac signal. The pace protection interval inhibits delivery of pacing pulses to the first cardiac region. When pacing pulses to the first cardiac region are inhibited because of the pace protection interval, pacing pulses are provided to the second cardiac region at a safety interval timed from the inhibited pacing pulse to the first cardiac region.

System And Method For Magnetic-Resonance-Guided Electrophysiologic And Ablation Procedures

US Patent:
8099151, Jan 17, 2012
Filed:
Dec 22, 2005
Appl. No.:
11/314241
Inventors:
Henry R Halperin - Baltimore MD, US
Ronald D. Berger - Baltimore MD, US
Ergin Atalar - Columbia MD, US
Elliot R McVeigh - Potomac MD, US
Albert Lardo - Baldwin MD, US
Hugh Calkins - Baltimore MD, US
Joao Lima - Timonium MD, US
Assignee:
Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine - Baltimore MD
International Classification:
A61B 5/05
US Classification:
600423, 600410, 600424
Abstract:
A system and method for using magnetic resonance imaging to increase the accuracy of electrophysiologic procedures includes an invasive combined electrophysiology and imaging antenna catheter which includes an RF antenna for receiving magnetic resonance signals and diagnostic electrodes for receiving electrical potentials. The combined electrophysiology and imaging antenna catheter is used in combination with a magnetic resonance imaging scanner to guide and provide visualization during electrophysiologic diagnostic or therapeutic procedures, such as ablation of cardiac arrhythmias. The combined electrophysiology and imaging antenna catheter may further include an ablation tip, and be used as an intracardiac device to deliver energy to selected areas of tissue and visualize the resulting ablation lesions. The antenna utilized in the combined electrophysiology and imaging catheter for receiving MR signals is preferably of the coaxial or “loopless” type. High-resolution images from the antenna may be combined with low-resolution images from surface coils of the MR scanner to produce a composite image.

Mri-Guided Therapy Methods And Related Systems

US Patent:
7822460, Oct 26, 2010
Filed:
Oct 26, 2007
Appl. No.:
11/924877
Inventors:
Henry R. Halperin - Baltimore MD, US
Ronald D. Berger - Baltimore MD, US
Ergin Atalar - Columbia MD, US
Elliot R. McVeigh - Potomac MD, US
Albert Lardo - Baldwin MD, US
Hugh Calkins - Baltimore MD, US
Joao Lima - Timonium MD, US
Assignee:
Surgi-Vision, Inc. - Memphis TN
International Classification:
A61B 5/05, G01V 3/00
US Classification:
600411, 324307
Abstract:
A system and method for using magnetic resonance imaging to increase the accuracy of electrophysiologic procedures is disclosed. The system in its preferred embodiment provides an invasive combined electrophysiology and imaging antenna catheter which includes an RF antenna for receiving magnetic resonance signals and diagnostic electrodes for receiving electrical potentials. The combined electrophysiology and imaging antenna catheter is used in combination with a magnetic resonance imaging scanner to guide and provide visualization during electrophysiologic diagnostic or therapeutic procedures. The invention further provides a system for eliminating the pickup of RF energy in which intracardiac wires are detuned by filtering so that they become very inefficient antennas. An RF filtering system is provided for suppressing the MR imaging signal while not attenuating the RF ablative current. Steering means may be provided for steering the invasive catheter under MR guidance.

Cardiac Pacemakers, Inc. - Saint Paul MN
International Classification:
A61N 1/368
US Classification:
607 17, 607 18, 607 9
Abstract:
Safety pacing in multi-site cardiac rhythm management (CRM) devices is provided. According to various method embodiments, a first cardiac signal from a first cardiac region and a second cardiac signal from a second cardiac region are sensed. The first cardiac region is paced to maintain at least a minimum cardiac rate, and the second cardiac region is paced to maintain at least the minimum cardiac rate when a pace in the first cardiac region is inhibited. Other aspects and embodiments are provided herein.
