MITIGATING FALSE MESSAGES AND EFFECTS THEREOF IN MULTI-CHAMBER LEADLESS PACEMAKER SYSTEMS AND OTHER IMD SYSTEMS - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240009466 titled 'MITIGATING FALSE MESSAGES AND EFFECTS THEREOF IN MULTI-CHAMBER LEADLESS PACEMAKER SYSTEMS AND OTHER IMD SYSTEMS
Simplified Explanation
The abstract describes implantable medical devices (IMDs) and methods for their use that aim to reduce the occurrence of false messages being accepted by the IMD or minimize the adverse effects of accepting a false message. These IMDs can include leadless pacemakers (LPs) or implantable cardio defibrillators (ICDs), among others.
- The technology focuses on reducing false messages and their adverse effects in IMDs.
- The IMDs can be LPs or ICDs, but are not limited to these types.
- The embodiments of this technology can be used to maintain synchronous operation among multiple IMDs implanted within the same patient, such as synchronous multi-chamber pacing.
Potential applications of this technology:
- Implantable medical devices (IMDs) such as leadless pacemakers (LPs) and implantable cardio defibrillators (ICDs)
- Synchronous multi-chamber pacing for multiple IMDs within the same patient
Problems solved by this technology:
- Reducing the acceptance of false messages by IMDs
- Minimizing the adverse effects of accepting false messages
Benefits of this technology:
- Improved reliability and accuracy of IMDs
- Enhanced patient safety by reducing the occurrence of false messages
- Synchronous operation among multiple IMDs for better coordination and effectiveness
Original Abstract Submitted
implantable medical devices (imds) described herein, and methods for use therewith described herein, reduce how often an imd accepts a false message and/or reduce adverse effects of an imd accepting a false message. such imds can be leadless pacemakers (lps), or implantable cardio defibrillators (icds), but are not limited thereto. such embodiments can be used help multiple imds (e.g., multiple lps) implanted within a same patient maintain synchronous operation, such as synchronous multi-chamber pacing.
