    • In an implanted medical device, a method and apparatus for detecting pressure waves caused by movement of a body organ, muscle group, limb or the like and transmitted through a catheter or lead body to the implanted medical device employing a pressure wave transducer mounted in relation to the proximal end of the catheter or lead to detect the transmitted pressure waves. The system may also include a reference transducer having the same pressure wave response characteristics as the pressure wave transducer but isolated from the proximal connector end for providing a reference signal including common mode pressure wave noise that both transducers are simultaneously subjected to. The pressure wave signal and the reference signal are preferably amplified, bandpass filtered to the body pressure wave of interest and stored, telemetered out or used to trigger a device operation. The pressure and reference wave transducers preferably are piezoelectric crystal transducers or accelerometers in direct or indirect mechanical contact with the proximal connector end of the catheter and is encapsulated from the body within a device connector assembly. Preferably, the catheter is a lead extending into direct or indirect contact with the patient's heart. Cardiac pressure waves and respiration pressure waves are both transmitted proximally through the lead body to the pressure wave transducer. Pressure wave signals may be derived in parallel to detect particular characteristics of the cardiac and/or respiratory cycle to provide timing signal(s) for controlling the device operations.

    • A capture verification system for a cardiac pacemaker comprising an implantable pulse generator (IPG) and one or more pacing leads having a proximal end coupled to the IPG and a distal end in contact with a patient's heart. The capture verification system employs a pressure wave sensor mounted in the IPG in relation to the proximal end of the pacing lead for sensing pressure waves transmitted from the distal end of the pacing lead to the proximal end thereof. The pressure waves include characteristic sounds of heart contraction and/or distal end lead motion caused by the contraction motion of the patient's heart that are transmitted along the lead body to the active sensor. A further isolated, reference sensor is also incorporated into the IPG in a similar fashion. Signal processors are coupled to the pressure wave and reference sensors for nulling out common mode noise.

    • A system and method for determining complex intercardiac impedance to detect various cardiac functions are disclosed involving a signal generator means for providing an adjustable direct current signal, a modulator for modulating the adjustable direct current signal to produce a modulated signal, at least one electrode for propagating the modulated signal across a myocardium, at least one sensor for detecting an outputted modulated signal from the myocardium, and at least one circuit to reduce the influence of process noise (aggressors) in the outputted modulated signal. The at least one circuit comprises an amplifier, a demodulator, and an integrator. The amplitude and phase of the final outputted modulated signal indicate the complex impedance of the myocardium. Changes in the complex impedance patterns of the myocardium provide indication of reduced oxygen and blood flow to the myocardium. The apparatus can be employed in implantable devices, including cardiac pacemakers and implantable cardioverter defibrillators.
