    摘要: A method and an apparatus for treating cardiac arrhythmias are provided. An interval between first and second consecutive beats of a heart, having first and second chamber types, is determined. The heart is paced at a first rate if the first beat is from the first chamber type and the second beat is from the second chamber type and the interval is less than a predetermined amount of time or if the first and second beats are both from the second chamber type. The heart is paced at a second rate if the first beat is from the first chamber type and the second beat is from the second chamber type and the interval is more than the predetermined amount of time.

    摘要: An implantable medical device delivers augmentation therapy to intervene in a pattern of sleep-disordered breathing. Augmentation therapy includes the delivery of electrical stimulation to cardiac tissue above and/or below a capture threshold. PESP and NES/CCM are possible augmentation therapies that are used alone or in combination. In addition, augmentation therapies can be used with other pacing therapies such as atrial overdrive pacing and atrial coordinated pacing as a therapy for sleep-disordered breathing.

    摘要: The invention relates generally to a system and method for monitoring and automatically delivering a therapy for sleep-related disordered breathing. In one form the present invention relates to an external device for monitoring for sleep-related disordered breathing in communication with an implantable medical device for delivering an electrical stimulation therapy. In another form the present invention relates to an implantable medical device for detecting sleep-related disordered breathing episode(s) and an external apparatus (e.g., a CPAP machine) for providing therapy to terminate, and/or reduce, said episode(s). In this form of the invention, the implantable medical device communicates with the external apparatus so that the therapy provided corresponds in magnitude and duration to the severity and/or length of the episode(s). In yet another form, an implantable apparatus detects said disordered breathing episode(s) and a hybrid therapy is provided by both the implantable apparatus and an external apparatus.

    摘要: An AV search method and apparatus is taught with some variation described. It allows a pacemaker to find the appropriate AV interval so as to avoid pacing in the ventricle when it is not necessary, even if there is intermittent AV conduction in the patient. Also, an adaptive PVARP method and apparatus is disclosed that allows the PVARP and AV interval to be adjusted together automatically.

    摘要: A dual chamber, rate-responsive pacemaker for pacing a patient's heart novelly allows tracking of the patient's sinus rate when the sinus rate is slightly less than the sensor rate; i.e., within a predetermined "Sinus Preference Window Maximum Rate Drop." Pacing at the sensor rate occurs when the sensor rate exceeds the sinus rate by more than the Sinus Preference Window Maximum Rate Drop. In the preferred embodiment a Sinus Preference Window, which occurs at the end of the ventricle-to-atrium interval, is decremented with successive heart beats by a programmable delta to increase the pacing rate until the Sinus Preference Window reaches zero, in which case the pacemaker paces at the sensor rate. The Sinus Preference Window is reset to its maximum value upon either the detection of an atrial sensed event, or upon the expiration of a programmable Sinus Check Interval. The pacemaker paces at the sinus rate or the maximum rate drop rate, whichever is faster, for a number of recovery beats, and then increments the pacing rate up to the sensor rate.

    摘要: A method and apparatus for cardiac pacing, in which pacing pulses are provided at an increased rate in response to a detected rapid drop in heart rate. A rapid drop is detected in response to heart rate falling from a persistent rate above a first threshold rate to a stable rate below a second threshold rate. If spontaneous depolarizations are detected while pacing at the increased rate, pacing at the increased rate is terminated.

    摘要: A dual chamber pacemaker is provided, preferably either DDDR or DDIR, having logic hardware and/or software for normally carrying out the DDIR or DDDR mode of operation, and further having means for carrying out a safe atrial pace method of operation in circumstances where normal atrial pacing could otherwise be competitive or result in loss of atrial capture. The pacemaker has means for detecting an atrial sense during PVARP, timing out a delay from the time of the early atrial sense, delivering a safe atrial pulse at the end of the delay, and controlling generation of a ventricular pace pulse in synchronous relation to the safe atrial pulse and with at least a minimum AV interval.

    摘要: An improved atrial synchronous, dual-chamber pacemaker provided with a variable refractory period during which the pacemaker is not responsive to sensed atrial contractions. The atrial refractory period is selected based upon whether the ventricular pacing pulse preceding the refractory period occurred as a result of time out of the interval corresponding to the basic ventricular pacing rate or due to the time out of the A-V delay interval initiated in response to sensing of a natural atrial contraction.
