  • Publication number: 20140249646
    Abstract: A system for recording electroneurographic activity comprising at least three electrodes capable of sensing a nerve signal from a peripheral nerve and means for receiving and processing the sensed nerve signal to identify a signal indicative of a specific action being a movement of a body part performed by the patient and for producing a control signal in response thereto featuring means for rejection of signals originating from biological interference sources without adversely affecting the electroneurographic activity being measured.

  • Publication number: 20140249647
    Abstract: A system for recording electroneurographic activity comprising at least three electrodes capable of sensing a nerve signal from a peripheral nerve and having means for receiving and processing the sensed nerve signal to identify a signal indicative of a specific action being a movement of a body part performed by the patient and for producing a control signal in response thereto featuring means for amplifying or attenuating signals in a specific direction of propagation without adversely affecting the electroneurographic activity being measured.

  • Patent number: 8260406
    Abstract: A system and a method for analysis of ECG curvature, which system involves a mathematical analysis comprising the following features where a number of different parameters are isolated and stored in a computer, where a first number of parameters are selected from at least one main group, where the selected parameters are combined in at least a first mathematical analysis. It is the object of the invention to improve mathematical analysis of ECG curvature particular for complex parts of the curvature such as notches or concavities. This can be achieved by selecting parameters from groups of symmetry, flatness, duration and/or complexity, using the parameters as input to an algorithm, where concavity intervals are evaluated on subsegments of the ECG segment and form the basis of up and downwards concavity quantification, where the system based on an algorithm detects and quantifies concavity on ECG curvatures.

  • Patent number: 7991458
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a system or method for analyzing drug influence on ECG curvature and Long QT Syndrome. The system has an input means connected to an ECG source, where different parameters of a received ECG curvature are indicated and/or isolated for indicating possible symptoms which relate to certain diseases that influence the ECG curvature. The aim of the invention is to achieve a system and a method for diagnosing Long QT Syndrome in an objective, fast and effect way by indication of a number of symptoms derivable from an ECG curve. Further aim is to achieve an effective test of drug influence on ECG curvature. The system analyzes the QT curvature of the ECG curvature for indicating Long QT Syndrome.

  • Publication number: 20110184692
    Abstract: A system and a method for spatially ordered estimation and visualization of multi-lead electrocardiographic ST deviations induced by myocardial ischemia, in which system a plurality of ECG signals are recorded from a ECG source, which signals are stored by a processor in a memory, which processor processes the signals to obtain ST deviation, which processor performs measurement of ST deviation from each lead where the processor performs a multi-dimensional estimation of an vector representing of the spatial direction and magnitude of the underlying cardiac injury-current giving rise to the measured ST deviations, which processor hereby estimates the spatial location and severity of myocardial ischemia.

  • Patent number: 7840259
    Abstract: A method for evaluating an electrocardiogram is disclosed herein. The method includes measuring an electrical activity of a patient, processing the measured electrical activity to form a multi-lead signal, and extracting a segment of the multi-lead signal. The method for evaluating an electrocardiogram also includes transforming the segment of the multi-lead signal into a synthesized signal that is most representative of the patient's electrical activity, and evaluating the synthesized signal. A corresponding system for evaluating an electrocardiogram is also disclosed.

  • Patent number: 7477936
    Abstract: A system or a method for analysing ECG curvature wherein at least one among a number of different parameters is isolated, for indicating symptoms of diseases having influence on the ECG curvature. The system and method provides for objective, fast and effective indication of a number of symptoms derivable from an ECG curve which may be indicative of one or more diseases. This can be achieved when a first number of selected parameters are combined in at least a first mathematical analysis, where the result of the analysis can be represented as a point in a coordinate system comprising at least two axes where the system can compare the actual placement in the coordinate system with a number of reference parameters stored in the system for indicating diseases having influence on the ECG curvature.
