Method for communicating with implant devices
Disclosed is a reader device, system, and method for communicating with a wireless sensor. The reader device may be configured to communicate wirelessly with an implant device associated with a proprietary system provided by a first entity. An external device, that may not be associated with said first entity, is provided and is configured to be calibrated to communicate with the implant device that is located within a patient. The external device may be used in place of an existing reader device that was initially calibrated to communicate with the implant device prior to the implant device being placed within the patient. The external device may be particularly useful for implant devices that communicate wirelessly with external devices where said implant devices are intended to be located within the human body on a permanent or indefinite duration of time.

Medical information processing apparatus and medical information processing method
A medical information processing apparatus according to an embodiment includes a memory storing a model that represents a relation between cell deformation and electric signal propagation; and processing circuitry configured to acquire four-dimensional image data acquired by imaging a three-dimensional structure of a cardiac muscle in time series, extract movement information on the cardiac muscle at multiple positions in the four-dimensional image data, and apply the model to the movement information with respect to the positions to calculate electric signal propagation at the positions.
MULTI-CHAMBER INTRACARDIAC PACING SYSTEM
The control module of a first pacemaker included in an implantable medical device system including the first pacemaker and a second pacemaker is configured to set a pacing escape interval in response to a far field pacing pulse sensed by the first pacemaker. The far field pacing pulse is a pacing pulse delivered by the second pacemaker. The pacing escape interval is allowed to continue without restarting the in response to a far field intrinsic event sensed by the first pacemaker during the pacing escape interval. The first pacemaker delivers a cardiac pacing pulse to the heart upon expiration of the pacing escape interval.
CONTINUOUS NON-INVASIVE MONITORING OF A PREGNANT HUMAN SUBJECT
The invention provides systems and methods for monitoring the wellbeing of a fetus by the non-invasive detection and analysis of fetal cardiac electrical activity data.

Communication devices, methods, and systems
Numerous aspects of communication devices, methods, and systems are described in this application. One aspect is an apparatus comprising an energy generator comprising a plurality of generator elements operable to output a plurality of different energy types in a signal direction toward the skin. Each generator element of the plurality of generator elements may be independently operable, when the energy generator is positioned relative to skin, to communicate with different nerves associated with the skin by outputting a different portion of an energy signal in the signal direction toward the skin with one energy type of the plurality of different energy types.
Device for an electrophysiology procedure
A quantum cardiac electrophysiology device comprising an array of consumable half-ferromagnetic active electrodes connected to an array of semiconductor of half-ferromagnetic selector switches over an array of half-ferromagnetic resistors to a neutral charges out of the heart, by casting and/or inking the arrhythmic substrate of an arrhythmia by the electrophysiology quantum entan- glement of said arrhythmic substrate.
ELECTROCARDIOGRAM-BASED BLOOD GLUCOSE LEVEL MONITORING
A computer system for use in monitoring blood glucose level monitoring, the computer system configured, in response to receiving electrocardiogram data measured over a given period of time for a given subject, to classify the electrocardiogram data using at least one neural network and a personalised model which is specific to the given subject so as to identify whether a low blood glucose level condition is present wherein blood glucose level falls below a predefined level and, upon identifying the presence of the low blood glucose level condition, to flag an alarm condition.
