Abstract: Provided are a system and method of generating an aggregated stability map of one or more rotational sources associated with a heart rhythm disorder. In accordance therewith, a plurality of rotational area profile maps is accessed for a plurality of analysis intervals. Each of the profile maps includes rotation intensity values for a plurality of locations associated with rotation of the one or more rotational sources. An aggregated stability map is generated based on the profile maps, wherein the stability map includes a plurality of locations. Each location includes a rotation intensity value based at least on a filter number of highest rotation intensity values from corresponding locations of the profile maps, the filter number being automatically determined from a plurality of filter numbers such that the plurality of profile maps as filtered includes a predetermined number of rotation intensity values in excess of a threshold intensity value.

Abstract: A system to generate a representation of a rhythm disorder that includes identifying remote or polar sources associated with a cardiac rhythm disorder is disclosed. The system includes generating a representation based on the cardiac information signals received from the sensors by transformation of spline-sensor locations of the catheter to x-y coordinate pairs of locations. A first offset is determined resulting from a perturbation to corresponding x-y coordinate pairs of locations associated with the representation, the first offset displacing coordinate pairs of sensor locations of the representation at least one unit of displacement in a first direction. A remote source associated with a cardiac rhythm disorder is identified when activations associated with the cardiac information signals rotate in sequence at least once, or emanate centrifugally for at least a first time period, the source being identified based on the representation as displaced.

Abstract: An example system and method of defining a rotational source associated with a heart rhythm disorder are disclosed. A plurality of center locations of wave fronts are calculated at a plurality of time points associated with the heart rhythm disorder. A rotational path that connects the plurality of center locations is then determined. Thereafter, a clinical representation that identifies a region of heart tissue associated with the rotational path is generated. The system and method can also determine a likely core associated with the rotational path. A plurality of relative diffusion shapes associated with the plurality of the center locations is calculated. A plurality of intersecting points of a smallest relative diffusion shape and other relative diffusion shapes is determined within the rotational path. A bounded polygon of the intersecting points is defined as the likely core.
