Biosensor applications to antitachycardia devices.

Current arrhythmia detection algorithms are unable to adequately distinguish stable from unstable tachycardias; therefore application of a biosensor to antitachycardia devices has been proposed to improve their performance. Right heart pressures and impedance have been investigated for incorporation...

      ab: Current arrhythmia detection algorithms are unable to adequately distinguish stable from unstable tachycardias; therefore application of a biosensor to antitachycardia devices has been proposed to improve their performance. Right heart pressures and impedance have been investigated for incorporation into these systems. Integration of other parameters (oxygen saturation, preejection period, pH, cardiac output, flow, and temperature) into these devices might also prove useful. The status of these biosensor arrhythmia detection algorithms and their application to antitachycardia devices are described below.
