20230000361 · 2023-01-05 ·

Disclosed are devices, systems, and methods for determining the dipole densities on heart walls. In particular, a triangularization of the heart wall is performed in which the dipole density of each of multiple regions correlate to the potential measured at various located within the associated chamber of the heart. To create a database of dipole densities, mapping information recorded by multiple electrodes located on one or more catheters and anatomical information is used. In addition, skin electrodes may be implemented. Additionally, one or more ultrasound elements are provided, such as on a clamp assembly or integral to a mapping electrode, to produce real time images of device components and surrounding structures.

VENOUS COMPRESSION SITE IDENTIFICATION AND STENT DEPLOYMENT GUIDANCE, AND ASSOCIATED DEVICES, SYSTEMS, AND METHODS

A system includes a processor circuit configured for communication with an external imaging device. The processor circuit receives, from the external imaging device, an image comprising a blood vessel within a patient. The processor circuit determines, using the image, a first location of the blood vessel with a restriction in blood flow caused by compression of the blood vessel by an anatomical structure within the patient and different than the blood vessel. The processor circuit generates a first graphical representation associated with the restriction. The processor circuit outputs, to a display in communication with the processor circuit, a screen display. The screen display includes the image and the first graphical representation at the first location of the blood vessel in the image.
