Rapid 3D mapping using multielectrode position data

A system useful for conducting an electrophysiology (EP) data capture procedure, comprising:

• a computer having a memory, a processor and computer code executing in the processor and operable through a user-interface;
• a display communicatively coupled to the computer;
• a template model of a surface of a heart stored in the memory and selectable via the user-interface for display in a panel on the display;
• at least one set-up establishable using the user-interface, the set-up comprising a plurality of particular locations on the surface of the template model at which a corresponding plurality of ECG channels are associable;
• and
• a connection to an EP system to receive the EP data from the plurality of the ECG channels, wherein the EP data is provided in another panel on the display;
• an event log connected so as to be populated in response to data being recorded during the EP capture procedure;
• wherein the computer code is operative to impart a color coding across the surface of the template model as a function of the set-up and as a further function of any EP data received through the connection, and
• wherein the EP data and the color coding across the surface of the template model in the respective panels are synchonizable on the basis of the event log.

An electrophysiology (EP) system comprising:

• an interface comprising an output device comprising a display and an input device comprising a control panel;
• a processor;
• and
• code executing in the processor comprising at least a first routine operative to respond to user-interaction through the interface to reposition one or more markers presented on the display and to automatically compute EP data values as a function of the repositioning of the one or more markers,
• wherein the interface provides a map having a surface depicting the EP data values thereupon, and
• wherein the code further responds to the user-interaction with updates to the map.

An electrophysiology (EP) system comprising:

• an interface comprising an output device comprising a display and an input device comprising a control panel;
• a processor;
• and
• code executing in the processor comprising at least a first routine operative to respond to user-interaction through the interface to reposition one or more markers presented on the display and to automatically compute EP data values as a function of the repositioning of the one or more markers, wherein the markers comprise end point markers that are positionable through the interface so as to define a region of interest that spans one heart beat.
