    摘要: A leadless pacemaker device (1) configured to provide for an intra-cardiac pacing comprises a processing circuitry (15) configured to generate ventricular pacing signals for stimulating ventricular activity at a ventricular pacing rates and a sensor arrangement configured to receive a sense signal over a multiplicity of heart cycles. The processing circuitry (15) is configured to derive, from signal portions (S) of the sense signal relating to the multiplicity of heart cycles, a combined signal portion ( S comb ) and to analyze said combined signal portion ( S comb ) for obtaining information relating to an atrial event (As). In this way a leadless pacemaker device is provided allowing, in particular, for a reliable detection of signals relating to an atrial activity and to use such signals for controlling a ventricular pacing rate for a ventricular pacing.
