Patent

CA 2470432

In a medical device that monitors and/or treats ventricular arrhythmia, the invention provides for a "normal" processing mode of operation and a "guarded" processing mode of operation. The transition between the two modes is a function of cardiac rhythm. Benign rhythms are processed in the normal processing mode and non-benign rhythms are processed in the guarded processing mode. In normal processing mode, the device performs functions that are not computationally demanding, but in guarded processing mode, the device performs the computationally demanding operations that classify arrhythmias. If therapy is deemed necessary, the device may provide the therapy in guarded processing mode.

Dans un dispositif médical qui surveille et/ou traite l'arythmie ventriculaire, l'invention fournit un mode de traitement <= normal >= d'opération et un mode de traitement <= protégé >= d'opération.La transition entre les deux modes est fonction du rythme cardiaque. Des rythmes bénins sont traités au moyen du mode de traitement normal et des rythmes non bénins sont traités au moyen du mode de traitement protégé. Dans le mode de traitement normal, le dispositif exécute des fonctions qui ne sont pas des opérations informatiquement exigeantes, mais dans un mode de traitement protégé, le dispositif exécute des opérations informatiquement exigeantes qui classifient les arythmies. Si la thérapie est considérée comme nécessaire, le dispositif peut fournir cette thérapie dans une mode de traitement protégé.
