Patent

CA 2600472

An implantable device for terminating ventricular tachycardia is disclosed. The device includes a processor configured to determine a first antitachycardia pulse routine of N pulses. In the routine the first N-1 pulses are separated by a first cycle length and the Nth pulse is separated by a second cycle length that is shorter than the first cycle length. The device also comprises a lead coupled to the processor. The lead comprises an electrode configured to sense a tachycardia and further configured, under control of the processor, to administer the antitachycardia pulse routine.

L'invention concerne un dispositif implantable servant à arrêter une tachycardie ventriculaire. Ce dispositif comprend un processeur conçu pour déterminer une première séquence d'impulsions anti-tachycardie de N impulsions. Dans cette séquence, les premières N-1 impulsions sont séparées par une première longueur de cycle et la Nième impulsion est séparée par une seconde longueur de cycle plus courte que la première longueur de cycle. Ce dispositif comporte également une sonde reliée au processeur. Cette sonde comporte une électrode conçue pour détecter une tachycardie et administrer la séquence d'impulsions anti-tachycardie sous le contrôle du processeur.
