  • System for prediction of cardiac arrhythmias
    Patent number: 6308094
    Abstract: A medical device and method for predicting cardiac arrhythmias, by gathering electrocardiographic data such as intervals between heart beats (RR-series) or other signal, mathematically decomposing or compressing the signal into several elements or components that contain the most significant information and tracking the changes in the several elements. The signal may be divided into time windows, and the signals decomposed into a plurality of coefficients or components such as Karhunen Loeve Transformation (KLT) coefficients that are predictive of the occurrence of a cardiac arrhythmia. The electrocardiographic data may be generated real-time, on-line, or be prerecorded data.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: August 17, 1999
    Date of Patent: October 23, 2001
    Assignee: University of Pittsburgh of the Commonwealth System of Higher Education
    Inventors: Vladimir Shusterman, Benhur Aysin, Ilan Grave, Luis F. Chaparro, Kelley P. Anderson
  • System for prediction of life-threatening cardiac arrhythmias
    Patent number: 5967995
    Abstract: A medical device and method for predicting life-threatening cardiac arrhythmias (LTCA) by gathering electrocardiographic data such as intervals between heart beats (RR-series) or other signal, mathematically decomposing or compressing the signal into several elements or components that contain the most significant information and tracking the changes in the several elements. The signal may be divided into time windows, and the signals decomposed into a plurality of coefficients or components such as Karhunen Loeve Transformation (KLT) coefficients that are predictive of the occurrence of LTCA. The electrocardiographic data may be generated real-time, on-line, or be prerecorded data.
