P-WAVE DETECTION USING INTRACARDIAC ELECTRODES

A method includes acquiring intracardiac unipolar signals and intracardiac bipolar signals at a given region of a heart of a patient. The unipolar signals are pruned by eliminating ones of the unipolar signals that correspond in time to respective bipolar signals. One or more unipolar signals are id...

Zusammenfassung:A method includes acquiring intracardiac unipolar signals and intracardiac bipolar signals at a given region of a heart of a patient. The unipolar signals are pruned by eliminating ones of the unipolar signals that correspond in time to respective bipolar signals. One or more unipolar signals are identified among the pruned unipolar signals, that are associated with far-field P-waves. Using the identified P-waves, a window of interest (WOI) is set on electrograms acquired in an atrium of the heart, and, using the electrograms having the set WOI, an electrophysiological (EP) map is generated, of the atrium indicative of atrial tachycardia (AT) tissue locations therein.
