Claim 0:
1. A tip confirmation system for confirming a location of a tip of a static endovascular device previously placed within a patient, the system comprising:
an ivECG acquisition module;
a multiscale complexity analysis module;
a notification module, including one or more features selected from an audio feature, a video feature, and a tactile feature; and
an adaptor designed to couple to the static endovascular device previously placed within the patient, the adaptor further designed for establishing an electrical pathway with the ivECG acquisition module by way of a saline column or an electrically conductive device,
wherein the multiscale complexity analysis module uses ivECG signals, provided by the ivECG acquisition module and the electrical pathway, to provide a P×I (proximity index), the notification module indicating a location of the tip of the static endovascular device relative to a predetermined target location.
