Shivaram Poigai Arunachalam has filed for patents to protect the following inventions. This listing includes patent applications that are pending as well as patents that have already been granted by the United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO).

  • Patent number: 10362955
    Abstract: Disclosed herein are techniques for graphically indicating aspects of rotors (such as pivot points of rotors) associated with atrial or ventricular fibrillation. Embodiments can include receiving, using a processor, an electrogram for each of a plurality of spatial locations in a heart, each electrogram comprising time series data including a plurality of electrical potential readings over time. Embodiments can also include generating, from the time series data, one or more of multi-scale frequency (MSF), kurtosis, empirical mode decomposition (EMD), and multi-scale entropy (MSE) datasets, each dataset including a plurality of respective values or levels corresponding to the plurality of spatial locations in the heart.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: February 8, 2017
    Date of Patent: July 30, 2019
    Assignee: Regents of the University of Minnesota
    Inventors: Shivaram Poigai Arunachalam, Alena Talkachova

Embodiments can include receiving, using a processor, an electrogram for each of a plurality of spatial locations in a heart, each electrogram comprising time series data including a plurality of electrical potential readings over time. Embodiments can also include generating, from the time series data, an entropy dataset including a plurality of Shannon entropy values corresponding to the plurality of spatial locations in the heart. Also, examples can include generating, from the entropy dataset, an entropy map including a plurality of graphical indications of the Shannon entropy values at the plurality of spatial locations in the heart, wherein the entropy map can include an image of the heart and graphical indications of locations of aspects of rotors in the heart (such as pivot point of rotors).
