Abstract: An electromagnetic immune tissue invasive system includes a primary device housing. The primary device housing having a control circuit therein. A shielding is formed around the primary device housing to shield the primary device housing and any circuits therein from electromagnetic interference. A lead system transmits and receives signals between the primary device housing. The lead system is either a fiber optic system or an electrically shielded electrical lead system.

Abstract: A controllable, wearable MRI-compatible, fixed-rate (VOO) pacemaker includes a self-contained steady state power source and an oscillator housed at the proximal end of a photonic catheter in a first enclosure. Continuous electrical energy is delivered from the power source and electrical pulses are delivered from the oscillator. The continuous electrical energy and electrical pulses are converted into respective continuous and pulsing light energy and directed into the proximal end of the photonic catheter. The photonic catheter includes optical conduction pathways and a covering of biocompatible material. Light entering the proximal end of the photonic catheter is transmitted through the optical conduction pathways, where it is collected and converted back to electrical energy at a second enclosure located at the distal end of the photonic catheter.

Abstract: An MRI-compatible, fixed-rate (VOO) pacemaker includes a self-contained power source housed at the proximal end of a photonic catheter in a first enclosure. Low energy continuous electrical power is delivered from the power source. This electrical power is converted into light energy and directed into the proximal end of the photonic catheter. The photonic catheter includes an optical conduction pathway over which is formed a covering of biocompatible material. Light entering the proximal end of the photonic catheter is transmitted through the optical conduction pathway, where it is collected and converted back to electrical energy at a second enclosure located at the distal end of the photonic catheter. The second enclosure houses a pulse generator that stores electrical energy and periodically releases that energy to deliver electrical pulses to bipolar heart electrodes.

Abstract: A method and system for indexing adapters within a data processing system where the data processing system contains multiple existing adapters, where each of the multiple existing adapters is identified by particular indexing data. All adapters within the data processing system are scanned. A determination of whether or not any additional adapters have been added to the data processing system in addition to the multiple existing adapters is made. Particular indexing data is assigned to any additional adapters in response to determining that additional adapters have been added to the data processing system, where any additional adapters added to the data processing system are indexed into the data processing system without changing the particular indexing data of each of the multiple existing adapters.
