Abstract:
A method for synchronizing operation of a heart assist pump device to a patient's cardiac cycle includes obtaining a signal from a motor of a heart assist pump device and filtering the signal to remove noise. The method also includes determining a speed synchronization start point at which time the motor of the heart assist pump device will begin a change in speed of operation based on the filtered signal. The method further includes modulating a speed of the motor of the heart assist pump device to a target speed at the speed synchronization start point, thereby synchronizing the change in speed of operation with a patient's cardiac cycle.

Claim (Index 10):
A heart assist pump device, comprising:\n a motor; and a controller, wherein the controller is configured to:\n receive frequency range data from the motor; \n determine a speed synchronization start point at which time the motor will begin a change in speed of operation based on the frequency range data, wherein determining the speed synchronization start point comprises determining, for at least two prior pulses, whether each of the at least two prior pulses are complete; and \n change a speed of the motor to a target speed at the speed synchronization start point.
