Publication number: 20210244341Abstract: Various embodiments include methods and computing systems for arrhythmia localization and display. A computing system may select a 3D heart electrical conduction model, including a 3D surface model, from a database of representative 3D heart models based on patient demographic information. The computing system may generate a patient-specific 3D localization of an arrhythmia based on the selected 3D electrical conduction model and ECG data, and generate a patient-specific cardiac activation map based the 3D electrical conduction model and ECG data. The computing system may then merge the patient-specific 3D localization of the arrhythmia and the 3D surface model to generate a 3D arrhythmia activation surface model, and display the patient-specific 3D localization of the arrhythmia and the patient-specific cardiac activation map for use in a medical procedure. Patent demographic information may be used to create or adjust a 3D heart model for inclusion in the database.Type: ApplicationFiled: February 11, 2021Publication date: August 12, 2021Inventor: Barry YOMTOV

Publication number: 20210244340Abstract: Various embodiments include methods and computing systems for arrhythmia localization and display. A computing system may include generating a patient-specific three-dimensional (3D) heart model including a 3D internal surface model, such as based on medical image data, generating a patient-specific electrical conduction model of a patient's heart of an arrhythmia based on the patient-specific 3D heart model and electrocardiogram (ECG) data. The patient-specific electrical conduction model of the patient's heart may identify a localization of an initiation site of the arrhythmia The computing system may merge the 3D localization of the initiation site of the arrhythmia and the 3D internal surface model to form an arrhythmia activation surface model, and generate a 3D model of the heart showing the wall thickness of the heart's myocardium simultaneously with the localization of an arrhythmia.Type: ApplicationFiled: February 11, 2021Publication date: August 12, 2021Inventor: Barry Yomtov

Patent number: 8864644Abstract: A ventricular assist device incorporating a rotary pump such as a rotary impeller pump implantable in fluid communication with a ventricle and an artery to assist blood flow from the ventricle to the artery. The device includes a pump drive circuit supplying power to the pump, one or more sensors for sensing one or more electrophysiological signals such as electrogram signals in and a signal processing circuit connected to the sensors and to the pump drive circuit. The signal processing circuit is operative to detect the sensor signals and control power supplied to the pump from the pump drive circuit so that the pump runs in a pulsatile mode, with a varying speed synchronized with the cardiac cycle. When an arrhythmia is detected, the pump drive circuit may also run the pump in an atrial arrhythmia mode or a ventricular arrhythmia mode different from the normal pulsatile mode.Type: GrantFiled: January 18, 2011Date of Patent: October 21, 2014Assignee: HeartWare, Inc.Inventor: Barry Yomtov

Publication number: 20060100608Abstract: Devices and methods are provided for the controlled release or exposure of reservoir contents. The device includes a reservoir cap formed of an electrically conductive material, which prevents the reservoir contents from passing out from the device and prevents exposure of the reservoir contents to molecules outside of the device; an electrical input lead connected to said reservoir cap; and an electrical output lead connected to said reservoir cap, such that upon application of an electrical current through the reservoir cap, via the input lead and output lead, the reservoir cap ruptures to release or expose the reservoir contents. The reservoir contents can comprise a release system containing drug molecules for release or can comprise a secondary device, such as a sensor. In one embodiment, the controlled release system is incorporated into an implantable drug delivery device.Type: ApplicationFiled: October 26, 2005Publication date: May 11, 2006Inventors: Scott Uhland, Benjamin Polito, John Maloney, Norman Sheppard, Stephen Herman, Barry Yomtov
