Abstract:
A method, system and device for monitoring and treating conditions of a mammalian heart, among which may include bradyarrhythmias, tachyarrhythmias and heart failure, the device being configured as a pacemaker that harvests energy as it implements the pacemaker functions to treat and monitor conditions of the heart. The pacemaker has a case, electrical circuitry sealed within the case, an electrode that is electrically coupled to the electrical circuitry, and embodiments may include a microelectromechanical system (MEMS) for harvesting and converting the kinematic energy of the heart into electrical energy. Embodiments provide receivers at locations of the heart which sense heart activity and are controlled with pacing circuitry to deliver electrical impulses at locations and time intervals to replicate the contractions of a normal functioning heart. Further embodiments provide a multi-part pacemaker where case-connectable electrode part may be implanted separately from the case part.

Claim (Index 11):
The system of  claim 10 , wherein said pacing circuitry operates each said receiver at each respective receiver location to cause the plurality of receivers to deliver electrical impulses to the heart at their respective receiver locations, and wherein said receivers are operated by actuating delivery of impulses from one or more of the respective receivers, wherein actuating said one or more receivers is carried out according to a time sequencing to produce a normal contraction of the heart, wherein said time sequencing of said electrical impulses delivered by the said one or more respective receivers is controlled with software containing instructions to monitor the respective sensing signals communicated from each said receiver that correspond to the heart activity at the said respective receiver location, and to control the actuation of the delivery of an electrical impulse at the respective location of the heart where the said respective receiver is located.
