Abstract
Official abstract text for this publication.
The invention provides a cardiac rhythm management system for stimulating a heart having photosensitive tissue, vectors useful to photosensitize cells expressing the vectors, and methods for light induced depolarization of cells.
First claim
Opening claim text (preview).
What is claimed is: 1. A cardiac rhythm management system for stimulating a heart having photosensitive tissue, the system comprising: a light emitting device configured to emit light having frequency characteristics suitable for depolarization of the photosensitive tissue; a tachyarrhythmia detection and classification circuit adapted to detect tachyarrhythmia using a ventricular rate and a plurality of tachyarrhythmia rate zones each including a threshold rate and classify the…
