US Patent:
8221411, Jul 17, 2012
Filed:
Dec 9, 2008
Appl. No.:
12/331004
Inventors:
David Francischelli - Anoka MN, US
Mark Stewart - Lino Lakes MN, US
Vladimir Nikolski - Blaine MN, US
Cushing Hamlen - Edina MN, US
Daniel Cheek - Plymouth MN, US
Matthew Bonner - Plymouth MN, US
Assignee:
Medtronic, Inc. - Minneapolis MN
International Classification:
A61B 18/18
US Classification:
606 41
Abstract:
Cardiac electroporation ablation systems and methods in which pulsed, high voltage energy is delivered to induce electroporation of cells of cardiac tissue followed by cell rupturing. In some embodiments, the delivered energy is biphasic, having a cycle time of not more than 500 microseconds.

Extravascular Arrhythmia Induction

View page
US Patent:
8359094, Jan 22, 2013
Filed:
Jul 31, 2008
Appl. No.:
12/183486
Inventors:
Matthew David Bonner - Plymouth MN, US
Kevin Patrick Kuehn - Shoreview MN, US
Vladimir Pavlovich Nikolski - Blaine MN, US
Joseph L. Sullivan - Kirkland WA, US
William John Havel - Maple Grove MN, US
Assignee:
Medtronic, Inc. - Minneapolis MN
International Classification:
A61N 1/39
US Classification:
607 5
Abstract:
A cardiac arrhythmia may be induced by delivering a sequence of pulses to a patient via one or more extravascular electrodes. In one example, one or more pacing pulses may be delivered to a patient via an extravascular electrode and a shock pulse may be delivered to the patient the extravascular electrode. In some examples, the pacing pulses and the shock pulse may be generated with energy from a common energy storage module and without interim charging of the module. For example, the pacing and shock pulses may be generated as the energy storage module dissipates. In another example, a cardiac arrhythmia may be induced in a patient by delivering a burst of pulses to a patient via an extravascular electrode. In some cases, the burst of pulses may be generated with energy from a common energy storage module and without interim charging of the energy storage module.

Apparatus And Method For Non-Invasive Induction Of Ventricular Fibrillation

View page
US Patent:
8391973, Mar 5, 2013
Filed:
Jan 4, 2008
Appl. No.:
11/969663
Inventors:
Vladimir P. Nikolski - Blaine MN, US
William J. Havel - Maple Grove MN, US
Joseph L. Sullivan - Kirkland WA, US
Daniel W. Piraino - Seattle WA, US
Eric R. Williams - Maple Grove MN, US
Assignee:
Medtronic, Inc. - Minneapolis MN
International Classification:
A61N 1/39
US Classification:
607 4, 607 5, 607 9
Abstract:
An apparatus and method for delivering an external shock pulse receive pacing pulses generated by a first device and a shock pulse generated by a second device. An output of the apparatus is coupled to patient electrodes and the apparatus controls delivery of the received pacing pulses to the output and delivery of the received shock pulse to the output. A control module, pacing control and shock control included in the apparatus cooperatively control delivery of the received shock pulse to the output at a predetermined delay after one of the received pacing pulses.

Method For Low-Voltage Termination Of Cardiac Arrhythmias By Effectively Unpinning Anatomical Reentries

View page
US Patent:
20060161206, Jul 20, 2006
Filed:
Nov 3, 2005
Appl. No.:
11/266755
Inventors:
Igor Efimov - Wildwood MO, US
Valentin Krinski - Loubet, FR
Vladimir Nikolski - Minneapolis MN, US
International Classification:
A61N 1/39
A61N 1/362
US Classification:
607005000, 607014000
Abstract:
A method for extinguishing a cardiac arrhythmia utilizes destructive interference of the passing of the reentry wave tip of an anatomical reentry through a depolarized region created by a relatively low voltage electric field in such a way as to effectively unpin the anatomical reentry. Preferably, the relatively low voltage electric field is defined by at least one unpinning shock(s) that are lower than an expected lower limit of vulnerability as established, for example, by a defibrillation threshold test. By understanding the physics of the electric field distribution between cardiac cells, the method permits the delivery of an electric field sufficient to unpin the core of the anatomical reentry, whether the precise or estimated location of the reentry is known or unknown and without the risk of inducting ventricular fibrillation. A number of embodiments for performing the method are disclosed.

Inventors:
William J. Havel - Maple Grove MN, US
Vladimir P. Nikolski - Blaine MN, US
International Classification:
A61B 17/00
US Classification:
606129
Abstract:
A medical device system for advancing a subcutaneous device to a desired implant site that includes a strap extending along a length from a proximal end to a distal end, a first flange and a second flange extending along a portion of the length of the strap, a base portion extending along a portion of the length of the strap between the first flange and the second flange, and an indentation extending from the proximal end to the distal end of the strap, the indentation formed by the first flange, the second flange, and the base portion, wherein the first flange and the second flange include curved bottom portions that make contact with and compress a tissue layer to position the tissue layer within the indentation during the placement of the subcutaneous device.

Implant System Including Guiding Accessory And Methods Of Use

View page
US Patent:
20130035748, Feb 7, 2013
Filed:
Aug 3, 2011
Appl. No.:
13/197156
Inventors:
Matthew D. Bonner - Plymouth MN, US
Vladimir P. Nikolski - Blaine MN, US
Assignee:
Medtronic, Inc. - Minneapolis MN
International Classification:
A61F 2/84
US Classification:
623 111
Abstract:
A guiding accessory, for use in conjunction with a guidewire and a catheter of an implant system, facilitates passage of an elongate and flexible conductor of a relatively compact therapy delivery device to an implant site, for example, within the cardiac venous system, when a therapy generator of the device is held within a distal portion of the catheter, and the catheter, device and guiding accessory are advanced along the guidewire. The guiding accessory includes a helically extending wall that forms a lumen within which the device conductor and guidewire extend. After advancing the catheter, guiding accessory and device to the implant site, the helically extending wall is unwound from around the device conductor, for removal, preferably, by pulling proximally on a tension line, which is attached to a proximal end of the wall.
