Method and System of Utilizing ECG Signal for Central Venous Catheter Tip Positioning

摘要

Disclosed herein are a method and a medical system for utilizing of a intravascular ECG signal for central venous catheter placement. The medical system is capable of detecting the position of a catheter tip and assessing its location relative to the cavoatrial junction. The detection and assessment are performed by a multiscale analysis of the complexity of the intravascular signal data points.
