Abstract:
Systems, devices, and methods for pacing a heart of a patient are disclosed. In some embodiments, a method for pacing a patient's heart may include determining a posture of the patient and determining if the determined posture corresponds to a predetermined sleep posture. If the determined posture correspond to the predetermined sleep posture, the method may further comprise determining a respiration phase of the patient and pacing the patient's heart at a pacing rate that is modulated based on the determined respiration phase of the patient. If the determined posture does not correspond to the predetermined sleep posture, the method may pace the patient's heart at a pacing rate that is not dependent on the respiration phase of the patient.
