Patent

CA 2717630

Embodiments relate to the field of hemodynamics, and, more specifically, to non-invasive methods of intracardiac pressure assessment Some embodiments include acquiring ultrasound image data of a right internal jugular (IJ) vein in a subject, processing the ultrasound image data to determine vascular characteristic data for the IJ vein, and determining the right-sided intracardiac pressure from the vascular characteristic data. Also disclosed are systems and apparatus for carrying out the methods

Les modes de réalisation de l'invention concernent le domaine de l'hémodynamique et, plus particulièrement, des procédés non invasifs d'évaluation de pression intracardiaque. Certains modes de réalisation comprennent l'acquisition de données d'images ultrasonores d'une veine jugulaire interne (IJ) droite chez un sujet, le traitement des données d'images ultrasonores pour déterminer des données de caractéristiques vasculaires de la veine IJ et la détermination de la pression intracardiaque du côté droit à partir des données de caractéristiques vasculaires. L'invention concerne également des systèmes et un appareil pour réaliser les procédés.
