摘要: An in-vitro testing system to assist in optimal programming of an ICD is provided which avoids the inconvenience and health risk associated with repetitive inductions arrhythmia. The includes a high speed computer having analog-to-digital digital-to-analog subsystems. software provides real-time capture storage patient's electrogram. Subsequently, electrogram may be played replayed into simulators at variety settings determine candidate parameters. further attenuator through signals are fed on their way ICD. This arrangement method by validation simulation achieved. also for output event markers simultaneously signal digital file assessment device performance.
