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.
Das Ausmaß der elektrischen ventrikulären Desynchronisation bei reduzierter linksventrikulärer Funktion ist von Bedeutung für den Erfolg der Resynchronisationstherapie der Herzinsuffizienz mit biventrikulärer Stimulation. Das Ziel der Untersuchung besteht in der nichtinvasiven Messung der elektrischen inter-ventrikulären Desynchronisation mit und ohne ischämische Herzerkrankung bei kardialen Resynchronisationstherapie Respondern. Bei Patienten mit 25,3 ± 7,3 % reduzierter linksventrikulärer Ejektionsfraktion und 166,9 ± 38,5 ms QRS-Dauer wurde das transösophageale linksventrikuläre EKG abgeleitet. Die QRS-Dauer korrelierte mit dem interventrikulären und links-ventrikulären Delay bei Resynchronisationstherapie Respondern mit nicht-ischämischer Herzerkrankung.
Termination of atrial flutter (AFL) is not possible in all AFL patients (P) with transesophageal left atrial pacing (TLAP) with undirected electrical pacing field (EPF) and high atrial pacing threshold. Purpose of the study was to evaluate bipo-lar transesophageal left atrial electrocardiography (TLAE) and TLAP with directed EPF for evaluation and termination of AFL with and without simultaneous transesophageal echocardiography (TEE).
Methods: AFL P were analysed using either a TO electrode with one cylindrical (CE) and three or seven hemispherical electrodes (HE) or TEE electrode with four HE (Osypka, Rheinfelden, Germany). Burst TLAP cycle length was between 200msand 50ms.
Results: AFL cycle length was 233±30 ms with mean ventricular cycle length of 540±149 ms. AFL could be terminated by rapid bipolar TLAP with directed EPF using HE-HE and CE-HE with induction of atrial fibrillation (AF), induction of AF and spontaneous conversion to sinus rhythm and direct conversion to sinus rhythm. Directed EPF was simulated with finite element method.
Conclusions: AFL can be evaluated by bipolar TLAE. AFL can be terminated with rapid TLAP with directed EPF with and without simultaneous TEE. Bipolar TLAE with rapid TLAP is a safe, simple and useful method for evaluation and termination of AFL.
Cardiac resynchronisation therapy (CRT) with biventricular pacing (BV) is an established therapy for heart failure (HF) patients with interventricular conduction delay (IVCD). The aim of the study was to evaluate transesophageal IVCD and left ventricular (LV) pacing with directed electrical pacing field (EPF) in HF patients.
Methods: HF patients were analysed with bipolar transesophageal LV electrocardiogram recording and LV pacing with constant voltage stimulus output, 4 ms stimulus duration, distal cylindrical electrode (CE) and seven 6 mm hemispherical electrodes (HE) with 15 mm electrode distance (TO, Dr. Osypka, Rheinfelden, Germany).
Results: LV electrocardiogram recording with HE-HE and CE-HE evaluated a mean IVCD of 79.9 ± 36.7 ms. Directed EPF with CE-HE and HE-HE allowed LV VAT (n=12) and LV D00 pacing (n=5) with a mean effective capture output of 97.35 ± 6.64 V. In 15 responders with IVCD of 87 ± 33 ms arterial pulse pressure (PP) increased from 65 ± 24 mmHg to 79 ± 27 mmHg (p < 0.001). EPF was simulated with finite element method.
Conclusions: Transesophageal LV electrocardiography and directed EPF pacing with CE and HE allowed the evaluation of IVCD and PP to select patients for BV pacing.
Cardiac resynchronization therapy (CRT) with biventricular pacing (BV) is an established therapy for heart failure (HF) patients with inter- and intraventricular conduction delay. The aim of this pilot study was to test the feasibility of both transesophageal measurement of left ventricular (LV) electrical delay and transesophageal LV pacing prior to implantation, to better select patients for CRT.
