Patent number: 8147411Abstract: An enhanced intraluminal flow measurement system and method is conducive for a low-power ultrasonic system that can use continuous-wave (CW) Doppler sensing and wireless RF telemetry. Applications include measurement of blood flow in situ in living organisms. Implementations include an extraluminal component located outside of a body, such as a human or animal body, containing a lumen. The extraluminal component can be wirelessly coupled via an RF magnetic field or other RF field to an implantable intraluminal component. The intraluminal component (i.e. implant) is implanted inside of the lumen of the body such as a heart or elsewhere in a vasculature (such as in a dialysis shunt). The intraluminal component can telemeter, via RF electromagnetic signals, flow data directly out of the body housing the intraluminal component to be received by the extraluminal component.Type: GrantFiled: April 17, 2008Date of Patent: April 3, 2012Assignee: Pacesetter, Inc.Inventors: George W. Keilman, Leigh Bartlett, Timothy Johnson

Patent number: 7958786Abstract: A flow measurement system and method uses enhanced phase detection based on a ratio of amplitudes of summations of two oppositely propagating acoustic signals. A need for direct time measurement and extensive difference calculation is consequently avoided so that in some implementations compact, simple, low power analog circuitry can be used.Type: GrantFiled: July 17, 2009Date of Patent: June 14, 2011Assignee: Pacesetter, Inc.Inventors: George W. Keilman, Peter Leigh Bartlett, Timothy Johnson
