Abstract

The present invention is directed toward a detection architecture for use in implantable cardiac rhythm devices. The detection architecture of the present invention provides methods and devices for discriminating between arrhythmias. Moreover, by exploiting the enhanced specificity in the origin of the identified arrhythmia, the detection architecture can better discriminate between rhythms appropriate for device therapy and those that are not.

Description

[0001] Cross-References to Co-Pending Applications

[0002] This application claims priority to U.S. Provisional Application Serial No. 60 / 474323 filed May 29, 2003, which is also filed November 21, 2001 with Serial No. 09 / 990510 entitled "APPARATUS AND METHOD OF ARRHYTHMIADETECTION IN A SUBCUTANEOUS IMPLANTABLECARDIOVERTER / DEFIBRILLATOR (Apparatus and Method for Detection of Cardiac Arrhythmia in a Subcutaneous Implantable Cardioverter / Defibrillator)" is a continuation-in-part of the US application. The disclosures of both applications are incorporated herein by reference. technical field

[0003] The present invention generally relates to a method and apparatus for differentiating heart rhythms suitable for administration of therapy using an implantable cardioverter defibrillator. In particular, the present invention relates to a detection system with a detection-enhancing operator that distinguishes between supraventricular arrhythmias and ventricular arrhythmias. Backgr...
