A delay of starting up of certain applications may result in improving the overall performance of a system. The applications to be delayed may be placed in a container object or box such that they can be tracked and that other applications dependent on the delayed applications can be appropriately handled.

A method for electrospinning nanofibers having a core-sheath, tubular, or composite structure is disclosed. The process uses a spinneret having first and second capillaries that channel first and second fluids in the spinneret, the second capillary surrounding the first. A high voltage is applied between the spinneret and a spaced conductive collector. In one embodiment, the first fluid is a mineral oil and the second fluid is a polymeric solution that may include a polymer, a catalyst, a solvent, and a sol-gel precursor. The as-spun nanofiber includes an oil core and a composite sheath. The oil may be removed to produce a composite tubular fiber or the polymer and oil may be removed by calcination to produce a ceramic tubular fiber. In other embodiments, miscible fluids are used to produce porous nanofibers, selected additives functionalize the surfaces of the nanofibers and/or conjugated polymers are used.

An apparatus comprising an implantable cardiac signal sensing circuit configured for sensing an intrinsic cardiac signal, a memory to store a template of a morphology of normal atrial-ventricular conduction, and a controller that includes a tachyarrhythmia detection circuit and a correlation circuit. The tachyarrhythmia detection circuit is configured for detecting a rhythm with elevated ventricular rate using the sensed intrinsic cardiac signal. The correlation circuit is configured for iteratively calculating a correlation between the sensed intrinsic cardiac signal and the template, and comparing the calculated correlation to a variable correlation threshold to determine whether the detected rhythm correlates to the template. The apparatus also includes a therapy circuit configured for inhibiting a ventricular tachycardia therapy when the detected rhythm correlates to the template. Other apparatuses and methods are described.

An apparatus comprises first and second sensing circuits, a template generator circuit, and a correlation circuit. The correlation circuit is configured to identify a first fiducial position in a third cardiac signal sensed using the first sensing circuit during a detected rhythm with elevated ventricular rate, align the template correlation features and the correlation features of a fourth cardiac signal using the first fiducial position, calculate a correlation using the correlation features of the template and the correlation features of the fourth cardiac signal, and iteratively searching for a replacement to the first fiducial position in the third cardiac signal according to the calculated correlation.

An apparatus comprises an implantable ventricular depolarization sensing circuit configured to provide a sensed ventricular depolarization signal, a timer circuit configured to provide a ventricular time interval between ventricular depolarizations, and a controller circuit communicatively coupled to the ventricular depolarization sensing circuit and the timer circuit. The controller circuit includes a ventricular tachycardia (VT) detection circuit configured to declare an episode of VT when a number of accelerated beats are detected, calculate a hysteresis VT detection threshold interval, and deem whether the episode of VT persists using the hysteresis VT detection threshold interval.

An implantable cardioverter/defibrillator (ICD) delivers atrial pacing under several scenarios during a tachyarrhythmia episode that is detected using a ventricular rate. In various embodiments, the atrial pacing terminates the detected tachyarrhythmia and/or enhances the classification of the detected tachyarrhythmia, thus avoiding ineffective and/or unnecessary delivery of a ventricular anti-tachyarrhythmia therapy when the detected tachyarrhythmia has a supraventricular origin.
