发明名称 ALTERNANS PREVENTION AND TERMINATION
摘要 In a method of preventing the formation of alternans in the heart of a patient, the heart is paced to control the TR interval of each heartbeat. The method may be performed using a heart monitoring and pacing device that includes a processor, memory, an electrocardiogram (ECG) sensing circuit, and a pulse generator. In the method, a heartbeat rate of the heart is detected and comparted to a threshold value stored in the memory. The heart is paced using the pulse generator to force the TR period of a limited number of heartbeats toward a targeted TR period, which is stored in the memory.

主权项 1. A method of preventing the formation of alternans in the heart of a patient using a heart monitoring and pacing device that includes a processor, memory, an electrocardiogram (ECG) sensing circuit, and a pulse generator, the method comprising: detecting a heartbeat rate of the heart using the ECG sensing circuit and the processor; determining that the detected heartbeat rate has reached a threshold value stored in the memory using the processor; pacing the heart to force the TR period of a limited number of heartbeats toward a targeted TR period, which is stored in the memory, using the pulse generator.
