Patent 12102828 was granted and assigned to Medtronic on October, 2024 by the United States Patent and Trademark Office.
A medical device senses cardiac electrical signals including T-waves attendant to ventricular myocardial repolarizations and detects a T-wave template condition associated with non-pathological changes in T-wave morphology. The device generates a T-wave template from T-waves sensed by the sensing circuit during the T-wave template condition. After generating the T-wave template, the device acquires a T-wave signal from the cardiac electrical signal and compares the acquired T-wave signal to the T-wave template. The device detects a pathological event in response to the acquired T-wave signal not matching the T-wave template.
