| 20110275944 | Brachial Cuff - A method for determining a calibrated aortic pressure waveform from a brachial cuff waveform involves the use of one or more generalized transfer functions. The one or more generalized transfer functions are specific for predetermined brachial cuff pressure ranges, such as below diastolic pressure, between diastolic and systolic pressure, and above systolic pressure. The brachial cuff is inflated to a pressure within the pressure range appropriate for the generalized transfer function to be applied to the brachial cuff waveform to generate the aortic pressure waveform. In some circumstances, it may be necessary to use a calibration transfer function to generate a calibrated aortic waveform. In other circumstances, the calibration transfer function is not necessary. | 11-10-2011 |
| 20100228311 | OPTIMIZATION OF PACEMAKER SETTINGS - The system provides information to facilitate efficient optimization of programmer settings for cardiac pacemakers. It uses simultaneous measurement of a patient's electrocardiogram and peripheral blood pressure waveform in order to calculate, in real-time, a value correlated to the patient's pre-ejection time (PET) and, optionally, ejection duration (ED) for the patient's left ventricle. The peripheral blood pressure waveform is preferably monitored with a wrist mounted tonometer. Data including the electrocardiogram and peripheral blood pressure trace, as well as the surrogate pre-ejection time interval (SPET) for each heart beat and trending is displayed on a computer monitor, thereby allowing a physician or nurse to quickly optimize PET for the patient and adjusting programmer settings for an implanted pacemaker. | 09-09-2010 |
