Abstract: A virtual device driver registry for use in connection with a computer system for providing virtual device driver call information to a program operating in said computer system in response to a call information request. The virtual device driver registry maintains a registration database including a plurality of entries, each entry including a virtual device driver identifier and virtual device driver call information. The registry establishes the entries in the registration database in response to receipt of virtual device driver registration requests from the virtual device drivers as they are initialized. The registry responds to call information requests from the programs to provide call information for the registered virtual device drivers. Each call request includes a requested virtual device driver identifier, and the registered information supply element retrieves virtual device driver call information associated with the entry whose virtual device driver identifier corresponds to the requested virtual device driver identifier in the request. Accordingly, the virtual device driver registry ensures that the virtual device drivers in the set of virtual device drivers associated with the registry have identifiers that need only be unique for that registry. In addition, the registry provides for greater flexibility in selection of identifiers and enables use of a much larger set of identifiers than would be available using the Microsoft naming scheme, since the identifiers which are registered with the registry are not limited by the Microsoft global identifier scheme using sixteen bit identifiers.

Abstract: A cardiac assist system which provides simultaneous cardiac assistance during a confirmed cardiac arrythmia, but which provides for the inhibition of the cardiac assistance in the event battery voltage drops below a predefined point. In particular the present invention features a battery voltage safety limit during the deliver VF therapy state. During VF therapy state the system provides skeletal muscle stimulation while charging a defibrillation output capacitor. The battery voltage safety limit is set above a threshold which will insure proper device functionality, i.e. above the power-on-reset threshold (hereafter "POR"). If the battery voltage safety limit is reached the system inhibits the skeletal muscle stimulation to thereby avoid reaching the POR threshold, but yet still maintain the charging of the defibrillation output capacitor. Once charging of the defibrillation output capacitor is completed a synchronization routine is begun and defibrillation therapy is delivered. In such a manner the present invention prevents the dual demands of skeletal muscle stimulation along with charging of the defibrillation output capacitor to cause the battery voltage to collapse and drop below the power-on-reset threshold.

Abstract: An improved yoke socket (20) for use with separate leads (10) and plugs (12) such as those used with electrocardiogram devices provides detents to guard against accidental disconnection of plugs from the socket. A first surface of the yoke socket bears a row of apertures (28) into which can be inserted connectors born by the individual lead plugs. A groove penetrates a second surface of the yoke socket to expose the inserted connectors. Each connector has a notch (19) that acts in concert with a retaining rod (32) placed within the groove to retain the plug against accidental detaching. The retaining rod comprises a series of expanded or bead-like portions (32a) connected by thinner rod portions (32b). The expanded portion is sized to protrude into each aperture from the groove to serve as a detent by interacting with the notch of an inserted connector. The entire retaining rod is backed by a layer of compressed elastomer such as rubber which acts to bias the retaining rod into contact with the connector. A two piece plug combiner is also provided for temporarily aggregating a group of lead plugs into a single unit.

Abstract: A serial data signal is synchronized to a clock signal in a synchronization circuit (10). Synchronization is accomplished by generating a plurality of delayed versions of the serial data signal using serially connected delay elements (21-27). The delayed versions of the serial data signal are sampled using a set of flip-flops (11-18). The sampled delayed data signals appearing at the outputs of each flip-flop of the set of flip-flops (11-18) are used to determine which delayed data signal is most closely aligned to the clock signal. The output of the multiplexer (40) is an aligned serial data signal. In addition, a drift correction circuit (50) continuously monitors and corrects the alignment between the clock signal and the aligned serial data signal. <IMAGE>

Abstract: A system for more reliably detecting and treating
arrhythmias such as ventricular fibrillation and
tachycardia are provided. The system reacts to the
detection of VF/VT by first looking for one or more
sensed R waves to confirm arrhythmia. If the arrhythmia
is confirmed, an appropriate shock is delivered
directly. However, if the arrhythmia is not confirmed
following a timed out confirmation duration, a pace
pulse is delivered, following which the system looks to
see if the pace pulse has resulted in capture of the
patient's ventricle. Capture is determined by a
examining sensed far field signals that correlate with
the delivered pace pulse. In a preferred embodiment,
the far field signals are sensed between a ventricular
fibrillation coil and a second electrode, the second
electrode suitably being either an SCV electrode or the
surface of the implanted defibrillator unit. If capture
is determined, delivery of a shock is aborted, and the
patient may be further treated with pacing therapy. If
capture is not found, this indicates that the arrhythmia
remains, even though not sensed during the confirmation
duration, and shock therapy is applied directly.
