Electrocardiogram based methodology for computing of Coronary Sinus Pressure
In this paper, a method based on pattern recognition and ECG technology is introduced as a means of calculating the optimum occlusion and release points within Pressure controlled intermittent coronary sinus occlusion (PICSO) cycles. There are favorable results that show PICSO can substantially salvage ischemic myocardium during medical surgery. These results are confirmed after studying groups of animals. The new method is a continuation of previous work on two other techniques using estimation and derivative calculations.
