Systems and methods for the generation and display of fusion statistics
First Claim
1. A cardiac rhythm management system, the system comprising:
- an implantable physiological data monitor configured to monitor a plurality of cardiac responses and a physiological parameter including at least one of heart rate, respiration rate, blood pressure, or posture;
a processor configured to classify the cardiac responses into one of at least three classes including pace-dominant, fusion, and pseudo-fusion classes and calculate statistical information regarding the classified cardiac responses, wherein the pace-dominant, fusion, and pseudo-fusion classes correspond to a cardiac response resulting from a corresponding electrostimulation, wherein the processor is configured to correlate the calculated statistical information with the physiological parameter;
a memory configured to store the classified cardiac responses, the physiological parameter, and the calculated statistical information for future use by the processor or for display; and
a display configured to display in a graphical format the calculated statistical information in correlation with the physiological parameter.

Abstract
In an example, a cardiac rhythm management system includes an implantable physiological data monitor, a processor, a memory, and a display. The implantable physiological data monitor can be configured to monitor a plurality of cardiac responses. The processor can be configured to classify the cardiac response into one of at least three classes including pace-dominant, fusion, and pseudo-fusion. The processor can also be configured to calculate statistical information regarding the classified cardiac responses. In this example, the pace-dominant, fusion, and pseudo-fusion classes correspond to a cardiac response resulting from a corresponding electrostimulation. The memory is configured to store the classified cardiac responses and calculated statistical information for future use by the processor or for display. The display is configured to display the statistical information stored in the memory for diagnostic and device programming purposes.

12. A method comprising:
-
monitoring, using an implantable cardiac rhythm management device, a plurality of cardiac responses and a physiological parameter including at least one of heart rate, respiration rate, blood pressure, or posture; classifying, using a processor, the cardiac responses into one of at least three classes including pace-dominant, fusion, and pseudo-fusion classes, wherein the pace-dominant, fusion, and pseudo-fusion classes correspond to a cardiac response resulting from a corresponding electrostimulation; calculating statistical information about the classifications; correlating the calculated statistical information with the physiological parameter; storing the classified cardiac responses, the physiological parameter, and the calculated statistical information in a memory; and displaying in a graphical format on an external device at least the calculated statistical information in correlation with the physiological parameter. - View Dependent Claims (13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20, 21, 22)
