System And Method For Multiple Injection Procedures On Heart Vessels

US Patent:
7662124, Feb 16, 2010
Filed:
Apr 16, 2002
Appl. No.:
10/123956
Inventors:
Douglas J. Duchon - Chanhassen MN, US
James P. Smith - Watertown MN, US
Katherine H. Anderson - Golden Valley MN, US
Robert F. Wilson - Shoreview MN, US
Jiyan Liu - Roseville MN, US
Assignee:
Acist Medical Systems, Inc. - Eden Prairie MN
International Classification:
A61N 1/30
US Classification:
604 19, 604 30, 604 67, 604131, 604151, 604154, 604181, 604189, 604218, 600431, 600432
Abstract:
An angiographic injector system and a method of controllably delivering medical fluid to a patient from an angiographic injector system are disclosed. A multiple processor control system is used to actively control the injection process and to monitor sensed functions of the system. The multiple processors provide dual redundancy safety circuits for critical control functions such as syringe motor drive speed and current. A motor/servo-amplifier nested control function is also disclosed. A unique method and apparatus are disclosed for establishing injection parameter default values just prior to an injection procedure that are based on physiological values of the patient to be treated. The injector system uses an interactive display panel that presents sequenced set-up screens to the user and which enables the user to select injection procedures, parameters and other modes of operation directly through the interactive panel.

Pacing Device For Minimizing Ventricular Pauses After Delivery Of Atrial Anti-Tachycardia Pacing Therapy

US Patent:
7689279, Mar 30, 2010
Filed:
Nov 10, 2005
Appl. No.:
11/271387
Inventors:
Paul D. Ziegler - Minneapolis MN, US
Douglas A. Hettrick - Blaine MN, US
Paul G. Krause - St. Louis Park MN, US
Katherine H. Anderson - Golden Valley MN, US
Assignee:
Medtronic, Inc. - Minneapolis MN
International Classification:
A61N 1/00
US Classification:
607 9
Abstract:
A pacing control is used in a multiple-chamber cardiac pacing system, which, upon detecting an atrial arrhythmia, automatically switches to a special therapy mode and administers a selected anti-tachycardia pacing (ATP) therapy in the atrium, and which switches to a standard pacing mode following delivery of the ATP therapy. The pacing control adjusts the timing of pacing pulses to be delivered to the atrium and/or the ventricle to minimize any potential ventricular pauses that may result from the switch from the therapy mode to the standard pacing mode.

Digital Gain Control For The Reception Of Telemetry Signals From Implanted Medical Devices

US Patent:
4531523, Jul 30, 1985
Filed:
Oct 4, 1984
Appl. No.:
6/657446
Inventors:
Katherine H. Anderson - Minneapolis MN
Assignee:
Medtronic, Inc. - Minneapolis MN
International Classification:
A61N 100
US Classification:
128419PT
Abstract:
A gain control system for verifying the programming of an implanted medical device is provided for an external programming unit which receives transmitted signals from the implanted unit and verifies if these signals represent valid "1" and "0" data bits. If the signals of an encoded message unit are valid signals then processing continues. If some of the signals are invalid due to noise interference, the gain of the receiver of the programming unit is decremented in steps as long as the error rate exceeds a predetermined number of errors per unit time.

One Button Lid Activated Automatic External Defibrillator

US Patent:
5797969, Aug 25, 1998
Filed:
Jan 9, 1997
Appl. No.:
8/781185
Inventors:
Kenneth F. Olson - Minneapolis MN
Byron L. Gilman - Plymouth MN
Katherine H. Anderson - Golden Valley MN
Assignee:
SurVivaLink Corporation - Minneapolis MN
International Classification:
A61N 139
US Classification:
607 5
Abstract:
An automated external defibrillator which automatically performs self-tests on a daily and weekly basis. Tested functions include the presence and interconnection of defibrillator electrodes, battery charge state and the operability of the high voltage circuit. Visual and audible indicators are actuated to alert an operator if faults are identified. A record of each self-test is stored in memory, and can be subsequently retrieved through a communications port.
