One embodiment enables detection of MI/I and emerging infarction in an implantable system. A plurality of devices may be used to gather and interpret data from within the heart, from the heart surface, and/or from the thoracic cavity. The apparatus may further alert the patient and/or communicate the condition to an external device or medical caregiver. Additionally, the implanted apparatus may initiate therapy of MI/I and emerging infarction.

Implantable myocardial ischemia detection, indication and action technology

Embodiments include devices and methods. One embodiment includes a method for imaging an endometrial cavity, including acquiring a plurality of images using an imaging system. A first part of the imaging system is positioned within the endometrial cavity. At least portions of two or more of the images are combined into a representation of at least a portion of the endometrial cavity. The combining at least portions of two of the images may include determining any motion of the first part of the imaging system, between the two or more of the images. Other embodiments are described and claimed.

Methods and devices for endoscopic imaging

Certain embodiments include an endoscope and methods for imaging using the endoscope. The endoscope may include an imaging channel and a tip positioned at one end of the imaging channel, the tip adapted to collect light from a field of view that extends 360&#xb0; around at least a portion of the endoscope and to transmit the light to the imaging channel. Certain embodiments may also utilize various sensors, controllers and processing mechanisms to record and process images into a representation, move the endoscope in and out of the endometrial cavity, and to biopsy a portion of the endometrium.

Endoscopic imaging of an organ system

Methods for identifying and extracting heart depolarization and repolarization in a paced heart. Certain methods also include identifying and analyzing particular features of at least one pacing spike and QRS waveform for heart beat characterization. These features may include signal changing speed and signal time interval (distance) of pacing spikes and QRS depolarization when pacing excitation is initialized.

Method of extracting and evaluating paced heart beats using max-min transform analysis

An implantable apparatus may include a plug member having a lumen and a valve adapted to open and close the lumen in response to a signal. The apparatus may also include at least one sensor and a controller adapted to control the valve. The controller may be programmable to open the valve to permit the flow of urine under at least one mode of operation selected from a predetermined time interval operation, a sensor operation, and a manual actuation operation.
