  • Continuous localization and guided treatment of cardiac arrhythmias
    Patent number: 6658285
    Abstract: Systems, devices, and methods localize and/or treat arrhythmias of a heart of a patient using signals sensed at an accessible body surface. Based on a database of known heart signals and associated ectopic origin sites or exit sites for treatment guidance, continuous localization identifies candidate ectopic or exit sites throughout a continuous region of tissue. An integral from a selected time interval of a reference heart cycle can be compared statistically with known body surface maps. Statistical interpolation can identify a candidate ectopic or exit site which is different than the known ectopic or exit sites. Relative localization provides accurate site identification from one or more known pacing sites (and the associated heart signals) taken from the patient.
