Methods, systems, and apparatuses are described for automated external defibrillation for determining shock/no-shock decisions based on ECG readings taken when a patient is undergoing cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR). A device may filter an ECG signal of a patient to reduce artifacts from the signal caused by CPR being performed on the patient. The device may use the filtered ECG signal to determine whether to deliver a therapeutic shock to a patient even if the patient is undergoing CPR.

20230028150 · 2023-01-26 ·

A training simulator for intraoperative neuromonitoring (IONM) systems includes channels where at least one of the channels is identified as an active stimulation channel and a subset of the rest of the channels is identified as reference or pick up sites. Channels of the subset having signal data that exceed a predefined threshold are retained for further processing, while channels with signal data that do not exceed the threshold are eliminated from further reporting. Response data for the remaining channels are generated in advance of a future time when the response would occur. The generated data is time stamped and stored for display at a time window when requested by the system.

Neural sensing in an implantable stimulator device during the provision of active stimulation

Techniques for sensing neural responses such as Evoked Compound Action Potentials (ECAPs) in an implantable stimulator device are disclosed. A first therapeutic pulse phase is followed by a second pulse phase, which phases may be of opposite polarities to assist with active charge recovery. The second pulse phase is formed so as to overlap in time with the arrival of the ECAP at a sensing electrode, which second phase may generally be longer and of a lower amplitude. In so doing, a stimulation artifact formed in a patient's tissue is rendered constant, and of a smaller amplitude, when the ECAP is sensed at the sensing electrode, which eases sensing by a sense amp circuit. Passive charge recovery may follow the second phase, which will not interfere with ECAP sensing that has already occurred.

Apparatus and methods for removing a large-signal voltage offset from a biomedical signal

Apparatus and methods remove a voltage offset from an electrical signal, specifically a biomedical signal. A signal is received at a first operational amplifier and is amplified by a gain. An amplitude of the signal is monitored, by a first pair of diode stages coupled to an output of the first operational amplifier, for the voltage offset. The amplitude of the signal is then attenuated by the first pair of diode stages and a plurality of timing banks. The attenuating includes limiting charging, by the first pair of diode stages, of the plurality of timing banks and setting a time constant based on the charging. The attenuating removes the voltage offset persisting at a threshold for a duration of at least the time constant. Saturation of the signal is limited to a saturation recovery time while the saturated signal is gradually pulled into monitoring range over the saturation recovery time.
