  • Patent number: 10888237
    Abstract: A computer system for determining Ventricular Far Field contribution in atrial electrograms of a patient. The system includes an interface module configured to receive a plurality of electrical signals generated by a plurality of sensors wherein the plurality of electrical signals relate to a plurality of locations in an atrium of the patient; a reference module configured to determine a reference signal reflecting electrical excitation of the patient's ventricles; and a data processing module. The data processing module is configured to select from the plurality of the received electrical signals such electrical signals which are recorded a number of conditions. The data processing module is further configured to determine a spatio-temporal distribution of the Ventricular Far Field inside the atrium by approximating the spatio-temporal distribution (VFFc) based on signal data of the selected signals by using an approximation model.

  • Publication number: 20200221970
    Abstract: A medical system (6000) includes an EIT module (30, 33, 8000), a ventilation module (7100), a dosing module (4), a data input module (50) and a control module (70). The control module (70) coordinates a breath-hold maneuver, which is carried out at the ventilation module (7100). The control module (70) coordinates a perfusion measurement and a data acquisition (50) of EIT data (3), which is carried out at the EIT module (30, 33, 8000). The control module (70) determines an indicator, which indicates a state of perfusion of the lungs, and makes this indicator of the state of perfusion of the lungs available.
