This paper presents a new intelligent control algorithm using Anfis (Adaptive neuro fuzzy inference system) for new generation of Cardiac Pacemakers. Anfis uses both merits of Fuzzy and Neural networks (Learning and speed). Based on various states of body (rest, walking and exercising) and preprogramed states of patient (Sex, age, blood pressure) heart rate and amplitude of exciting pulses will be changed. A feedback from output ECG signal fed back and compared in Anfis controller. Anfis compared with other fuzzy control algorithms provides better control scheme for estimation and generation of pacing pulse parameters including rate and amplitude. Accelerometer sensors and HRV and GSR are used for stabilization of ECG signal during the three body states [1]. Old designs of pacemakers cannot solve problems but Fuzzy can do the job very fast and accurately. Anfis method designed externally regarding patient conditions and normal ECG signals data captured from a known database (based on age and sex of patient) then calculated in MATLAB (Simulink) and programmed directly or wirelessly by ultrasound signals (a novel proposed method). Previous researches [4-19-20] are based on fuzzy PID and fuzzy logic controller in patients with cardiovascular diseases. Anfis controller offers good adaptation of the heart rate and other ECG parameters to the physiological needs of patient.

This work proposes to design a fuzzy proportional-integral derivative (FPID) controller for dual-sensor cardiac pacemaker systems, which can automatically control the heart rate to accurately track a desired preset profile. The combination of fuzzy logic and conventional PID control approaches is adopted for the controller design based on dual-sensors. This controller offers good adaptation of the heart rate to the physiological needs of the patient under different states (rest and walk). Through comparing with the conventional fuzzy control algorithm, FPID provides a more suitable control strategy to determine a pacing rate in order to achieve a closer match between actual heart rate and a desired profile. To assist the heartbeat recovery, the stimuli with adjustable pacing rate is generated by the pacemaker according to the FPID controller, such actual heart rate may track the preset heart rate faithfully. Simulation results confirm that this proposed control design is effective for heartbeat recovery and maintenance. This study will be helpful not only for the analysis and treatment of bradycardias but also for improving the performance of medical devices.

“…Since its first implantation into human body in 1958, pacemaker has known several evolutions [1][2] to become nowadays a vital cardiovascular device frequently prescribed to improve the quality of life for hearth failure patients. To increase the quality of service, pacemaker industry tends to integrate wireless telemetry technology into the medical device to allow home monitoring of the patient.…”
