  • Pressure and impedance based discrimination of hemodynamic stability
    Patent number: 8831721
    Abstract: An implantable cardioverter defibrillator evaluates the hemodynamic stability of an arrhythmia to determine whether or not to defibrillate. The device obtains cardiac pressure and cardiac impedance data and evaluates a phase relationship between these parameters. Hemodynamically stable rhythms will result in an out of phase relationship.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: April 24, 2008
    Date of Patent: September 9, 2014
    Assignee: Medtronic, Inc.
    Inventors: Douglas A. Hettrick, Kevin P. Vincent, Shantanu Sarkar, Yong K. Cho, Todd M. Zielinski
