Abstract: The system includes an active medical device with means for delivering defibrillation shocks; means for continuous collection of the patient current cardiac activity parameters; and evaluator means with neuronal analysis comprising a neural network with at least two layers. This neural network comprises upstream three neural sub-networks receiving the respective parameters divided into separate sub-groups corresponding to classes of arrhythmogenic factors; and downstream an output neuron coupled to the three sub-networks and capable of outputting an index of risk of ventricular arrhythmia. The risk index is compared with a given threshold, to enable or disable at least one function of the device in case of crossing of the threshold.

Abstract: Systems and methods can be used to determine activation information for points along a surface or selected region of interest. In one example, a computer-readable medium having computer-executable instructions for performing a method that includes computing a local activation vector based on relative timing among electrical signals corresponding to neighboring points of a plurality of points on a surface envelope. An activation time can be computed for each of the plurality of points as a function of corresponding local activation vectors.

Abstract: The present invention relates to computers executing in time-share mode, under the control of their operating systems, a number of separate and independent application programs. The present invention relates in particular to the networks of onboard computer networks of IMA type executing application programs written independently of the hardware specifications of the computers and not permanently resident in the computers. The method of the present invention associates with the digital core of each computer of the network a monitoring state machine operating independently and in having the monitoring state machine monitor the correct observance by the associated computer of the time sequencing of the tasks and memory partition allocations. Furthermore, the monitoring state machines can be configured to execute monitoring service applications of time-out or watchdog type to which the application programs executed by the computers of the network can subscribe.
