Method for obtaining ventricular pacing threshold of implantable cardiac pacemaker

Abstract

The invention discloses a method for obtaining the ventricular pacing threshold of an implantable cardiac pacemaker, which comprises the following steps: 1) switching the pacemaker from a current modeto a VDI mode, and then collecting VV intervals and corresponding AS-VS interval value, and then according to the VV interval and its corresponding AS-The mean ventricular rate and the mean atherosclerosis rate were calculated by VS interval. VS interval; 2) set that frequency of ventricular test pulse to mean ventricular rate + 10bpm, and set the t mask window after AS event to mean AS-VS interval + 50ms; 3) that t pulse VP is discharged accord to the average ventricular rate +10 bpm, the ER wave is acquire, The ventricular pacing threshold of the implantable cardiac pacemaker is confirmed by the collected ER wave. During this period, when the ventricular test pulse appears in the test shield window, the interval pause threshold test is performed, and the pulse amplitude is set as the programmable amplitude. The method can obtain the ventricular pacing threshold of the implantable cardiac pacemaker more accurately.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of medical devices, and relates to a method for obtaining a ventricular pacing threshold of an implantable cardiac pacemaker. Background technique [0002] Since the first cardiac pacemaker was implanted in the human body in 1958, after 60 years of development, various physiological automatic functions have been continuously integrated into the pulse generator, which has significantly improved sinus bradycardia, third-degree atrioventricular Symptoms of patients such as conduction block, and effectively improved their quality of life. Among them, ensuring the effective pacing of the heart is the most basic purpose and the most important function of the implantable cardiac pacemaker. Especially safe and reliable ventricular pacing will be directly related to the life safety of patients. [0003] The ER wave is a depolarization wave triggered by pulse stimulation of ventricular myocytes, which can be used as...

Problems solved by technology

[0004]However, the R wave generated by the own ventricular activation may interfere with the test results, and even cause the pacemaker to measure the wrong ventricular pacing threshold, resulting in the output pulse Failure to capture the ventricle, with serious adverse consequences for the patient

For example, in VVI mode, the pacemaker has no sense of atrial events, but if the patient has its own atrioventricular conduction (ie, AS-VS), then, when the test pacing pulse VP cannot capture the ventricle, the collected ER wave The data may include both the ER wave of the test pacing pulse VP and the R wave of the own ventricular excitation; another
