| 20090216290 | APPARATUS AND METHOD FOR TREATING ATRIAL FIBRILLATION AND ATRIAL TACHYCARDIA - A method and device for treating an electrical problem in an organ, especially a heart, of a human or animal patient comprises atraumatically blocking the transmission of one or more electrical signals external to the organ. Nerve cell membranes near a cathode are depolarized while nerve cell membranes near an anode are hyperpolarized, inducing a DC conduction block. The method and device are especially suitable for treating atrial tachycardia where unwanted signals from at least one pulmonary vein and/or at least one fat pad are blocked within the construct of the heart. | 08-27-2009 |
| 20090157130 | APPARATUS AND METHOD FOR TREATING ATRIAL FIBRILLATION AND ATRIAL TACHYCARDIA - An apparatus for treating atrial fibrillation or atrial tachycardia comprises means for dynamically steering or selecting two or more current vector paths sequentially or simultaneously for defibrillation to change the transmembrane potential in the left and right atria sufficiently to halt AF or AT. The apparatus is useful to treat AF or AT in patients. | 06-18-2009 |
