Oesophageal Electrode Probe and Device for Cardiological Treatment and/or Diagnosis (US20200261024)
(2020)
An oesophageal electrode probe for bioimpedance measurement and/or for neurostimulation is provided; a device for transoesophageal cardiological treatment and/or cardiological diagnosis is also provided; a method for the open-loop or closed-loop control of a cardiological catheter ablation device and/or a cardiological, circulatory and/or respiratory support device is also provided. The oesophageal electrode probe comprises a bioimpedance measuring device for measuring the bioimpedance of at least one part of tissue surrounding the oesophageal electrode probe. The bioimpedance device comprises at least one first and one second electrode. The at least one first electrode is arranged on a side of the oesophageal electrode probe facing towards the heart. The at least one second electrode is arranged on a side of the oesophageal electrode probe facing away from the heart. The device comprises the oesophageal electrode probe and a control and/or evaluation device.
Oesophageal Electrode Probe and Device for Cardiological Treatment and/or Diagnosis (EP3706626A1)
(2020)
The invention relates to an oesophageal electrode probe (10) for bioimpedance measurement and/or for neurostimulation; a device (100) for transoesophageal cardiological treatment and/or cardiological diagnosis; and a method for the open-loop or closed-loop control of a cardiac catheter ablation device and/or a cardiac, circulatory and/or respiratory support device. The oesophageal electrode probe comprises a bioimpedance measuring device for measuring the bioimpedance of at least one part of the tissue surrounding the oesophageal electrode probe. The bioimpedance device comprises at least one first and one second electrode, wherein the at least one first electrode (12A) is arranged on a side (14) of the oesophageal electrode probe facing towards the heart and the at least one second electrode (12B) is arranged on a side (16) of the oesophageal electrode probe facing away from the heart. The device (100) comprises the oesophageal electrode probe (10) and a control and/or evaluation device (30), which is configured for receiving a first bioimpedance measurement signal from the at least one first electrode (12A) and a second bioimpedance measurement signal from the at least one second electrode (12B), and comparing same, and generating a control signal on the basis of the comparison. The control signal can be a signal for the open-loop or closed-loop control of a cardiac catheter ablation device and/or a cardiac, circulatory and/or respiratory support device.
Device and method for monitoring and optimising a temporal trigger stability (WO2023094554A1)
(2023)
The present invention relates to devices for monitoring and optimising a temporal trigger stability of an extracorporeal circulatory support means, and to open-loop and closed-loop control units for the extracorporeal circulatory support means comprising such a device, and to corresponding methods. A device (10) for monitoring a temporal trigger stability of an extracorporeal circulatory support means is accordingly proposed, which device is designed to receive a first dataset (14) of a measurement of an ECG signal of a supported patient over a predefined period of time. The device (10) comprises an evaluation unit (16), which is designed to determine or identify a plurality of R triggers (26) from the first dataset (14), wherein the evaluation unit (16) is also designed to receive or provide a second dataset (20) having evaluated ECG signals and a plurality of R triggers (28) and to selectively map the second dataset (20) on the first dataset (14). The device is also designed to emit a signal (22) that characterises a temporal gap between successive R triggers (26) from the first dataset (14) and successive R triggers (28) from the second dataset (20) which are mapped on the first dataset.
The present invention relates to open-loop and closed-loop control units for extracorporeal circulatory support, to systems comprising such an open-loop and closed-loop control unit, and to corresponding methods. An open-loop and closed-loop control unit (10) for extracorporeal circulatory support is proposed, which is configured to receive a measurement of an ECG signal (12) of a supported patient over a predefined period of time, wherein the ECG signal (12) comprises multiple data points for each time point within a heart cycle. The open-loop and closed-loop control unit (10) comprises an evaluation unit (100) which is configured to evaluate the data points for at least one time point in a spatial and/or temporal manner and to determine at least one amplitude change (14) within the heart cycle based on the evaluated data points. The open-loop and closed-loop control unit (10) is further configured to output an open-loop and/or closed-loop signal (16) for extracorporeal circulatory support at a predefined point in time after the at least one amplitude change (14).
