Journal ArticleDOI
Prognostic Significance of Ventricular Ectopic Beats with Respect to Sudden Death in the Late Postinfarction Period
TL;DR: It is suggested that the differential association with SCD between ventricular extrasystoles and parasystole in the late postinfarction period may have bearing on the mechanism of ventricular fibrillation and SCD.
Patent
Implantable electrodes for accomplishing ventricular defibrillation and pacing and method of electrode implantation and utilization
TL;DR: In this article, the authors present several embodiment of an electrode system for ventricular defibrillation, and the methods of using and implanting the electrode system, which is well adapted for easy implantation during open heart surgery, or in a separate operation which can be performed in the mediastinal space without intrusion of the pleural space.
Patent
Arrhythmia recorder for use with an implantable defibrillator
Alois A Langer,Morton M. Mower +1 more
TL;DR: In this paper, two basic embodiment of the inventive recorder are considered, one is fully implantable and is encased with sensing and defibrillating electronics, and the other is an external device which has external electrodes for associating with the patient; ECG information is transmitted to the recorder unit by telemetry.
Journal ArticleDOI
Feasibility and Effectiveness of Low-Energy Catheter Defibrillation in Man
TL;DR: The effectiveness of low energy intraventricular catheter defibrillation in man provides background for the development of the transvenous automatic defibrillator for protection of selected high-risk patients.
Patent
Cardioverting device with stored energy selecting means and discharge initiating means, and related method
TL;DR: An externally controlled implantable electronic device for delivering a cardioverting pulse of energy to the atrium of an ailing heart is described in this paper, where the patient visits the office of his physician, and contemplates the transmission of both information and powering energy through the skin of the patient.
