  • System and method for diagnosing a fluid status of a patient
    Patent number: 8663117
    Abstract: A system and method for diagnosing a fluid status of a patient includes non-invasively determining a left ventricular pressure of blood within a left ventricle of a heart of the patient. The left ventricular pressure is compared to a predefined pressure value to diagnose the fluid status.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: December 23, 2010
    Date of Patent: March 4, 2014
    Inventor: Alejandro Ortiz-Burgos

  • System and method for non-invasively determining a left ventricular end-diastolic pressure
    Patent number: 7857769
    Abstract: A system and method for determining a left ventricular end-diastolic pressure of blood within a left ventricle of a patient includes non-invasively measuring a plurality of cardiac parameters of the patient. The cardiac parameters may include a mitral valve area, and at least one of a stroke volume of the left ventricle, a left ventricular diastolic filling time, and a maximum velocity of blood entering the left ventricle. The systems and methods further include a step of calculating the left ventricular end-diastolic pressure using the measured cardiac parameters.
