    摘要: A pacing system delivers cardiac protection pacing to protect the heart from injuries. The pacing system receives a set of inputs and calculates parameters for delivering optimized cardiac protection pacing tailored for different stress levels. The system automatically adjusts heart rate to optimize cardiac protection pacing in a closed-loop system. In one embodiment, a method for delivering pacing pulses for cardiac protection is provided. Intrinsic atrioventricular (AV) intervals are sensed. The intrinsic AV interval and a predetermined equation relating the AV interval to an optimal AV delay are used to provide a maximum positive rate of left ventricular pressure change during systole. An AV delay is calculated using a predetermined percentage of the optimal AV delay to deliver ventricular pacing pulses to provide a desired level of stress for cardiac protective pacing therapy (CPPT) to provide a cardiac conditioning therapy to improve autonomic balance.

    摘要: This document discusses, among other things, an apparatus comprising an implantable cardiac depolarization sensing circuit, an electrical stimulation circuit, and a pacing mode controller. The pacing mode controller is configured to deliver pacing therapy according to a first pacing mode that is a normal operating mode, and to deliver pacing therapy according to second and third pacing modes. The second and third pacing modes increase mechanical stress on at least a particular portion of the ventricle as compared to the pacing therapy delivered during the first pacing mode. The pacing mode controller alternates between the second and third pacing modes when switched from the normal operating mode to a stress augmentation mode and stores a statistic related to the stress augmentation mode in a stress augmentation cycle memory area.

    摘要: Systems and methods provide for pacing a heart to improve pumping efficiency of the heart, such as by producing a cardiac fusion response for patient's subject to cardiac resynchronization therapy. A pacing parameter, such as an A-V delay, V-V delay, lead/electrode configuration or vector, is adjusted and a cardiac signal vector representative of all or a portion of one or more cardiac activation sequences is monitored during pacing parameter adjustment. A change in a characteristic of the cardiac signal vector is detected in response to an adjusted pacing parameter, the change indicative of a cardiac fusion response. A pacing therapy may be delivered to produce the cardiac fusion response using the adjusted pacing parameter.
