METHOD AND SYSTEM TO DISCRIMINATE RHYTHM PATTERNS IN CARDIAC ACTIVITY
First Claim
1. A computer implemented method for discriminating rhythm patterns;
- and rhythm patterns in cardiac activity, comprising;
under control of one or more processors configured with specific executable instructions,obtaining cardiac activity data for multiple cardiac beats over a predetermined period of time, wherein multi-beat segments within the cardiac activity data exhibit different rhythm patterns of interest including fast and slow irregular rhythm patterns;
calculating a cardiac beat timing relation representative of intervals between the cardiac beats within a measurement window;
designating the cardiac beats timing relation to have one of the rhythm patterns of interest based on a rate threshold;
identifying when successive multi-beat segments exhibit a rhythm pattern transition between the fast and slow irregularrecording the rhythm patterns transition in connection with the cardiac activity data.

Abstract
Methods and systems are provided for discriminating rhythm patterns in cardiac activity. The method and system obtain cardiac activity data for multiple cardiac beats over a predetermined period of time. Multi-beat segments within the cardiac activity data exhibit different rhythm patterns of interest including fast and slow rhythm patterns. The method and system calculate a cardiac beats timing relation representative of intervals between the cardiac beats within a measurement window, wherein the measurement window is configured to overlap the corresponding multi-beat segment. The method and system designate the cardiac beats timing relation to have one of the rhythm patterns of interest based on a rate threshold, identifies when successive multi-beat segments exhibit rhythm patterns that transition between the fast and slow irregular rhythm patterns and records the irregular rhythm pattern transition in connection with the cardiac activity data.
