    摘要: This document discusses, among other things, systems and methods for automatic electrode integrity management. Interelectrode impedance is measured for various electrode combinations of an implantable cardiac function management device. The impedance data is processed, such as at an external remote server, to determine whether an electrode is failing or has failed, to select an alternate electrode configuration, to alert a physician or patient, to predict a time-to-failure such as by using population data, or to reprogram electrode configuration or other device parameters of the implantable cardiac function management device.

    摘要: Methods and systems for delivering a pacing pulse to an atrium during a cardiac cycle. A retrograde P-wave may be identified during the cardiac cycle, indicative of sub-threshold atrial pacing. Delivery of the pacing pulse to the atrium may be adjusted in a subsequent cardiac cycle in response to identifying the retrograde P-wave. Adjusting delivery of the pacing pulse may involve initiating an atrial capture threshold test, temporarily increasing one or both of the pacing pulse amplitude and pulse width, and/or re-evaluating one or both of the pacing pulse amplitude and pulse width. Adjusting delivery of the pacing pulse may also involve altering the timing of a scheduled atrial capture threshold test. During an atrial capture threshold test, a retrograde P-wave template may be generated in response to atrial non-capture sensed during the atrial capture threshold test, and used to identify subsequent retrograde P-waves.

    摘要: Atrial capture threshold testing is performed in accordance with an atrial capture threshold testing schedule. Monitoring for retrograde P-waves occurs at least during times other than times during which scheduled atrial capture threshold testing is performed. In response to detecting a retrograde P-wave indicative of sub-threshold atrial pacing during monitoring, an unscheduled atrial capture threshold test is performed and pacing of the atrium is adjusted based on the unscheduled atrial capture threshold test.

    摘要: Systems and methods for determining depth of discharge for implantable device batteries are provided. One aspect of this disclosure relates to a method for determining depth of discharge for a battery in an implantable medical device. Voltage recovery of the battery is measured subsequent to a predetermined event. Measured voltage recovery data is stored in a database adapted to store data for one or more devices. Measured voltage recovery data is compared with stored voltage recovery data to determine battery depth of discharge. According to various embodiments, battery capacity consumed is measured using a coulometer and using a capacity-by-voltage device. Measured battery capacity consumed is combined with measured voltage recovery data using a predetermined weighted average, and the combined data is stored in the database. The stored data is used to determine battery depth of discharge, according to an embodiment.
