    摘要: An apparatus and method for providing pacing pulses to a second site when the pacing pulses are inhibited from being provided to a first site. A first cardiac signal and a second cardiac signal are sensed, where both the first and second cardiac signals include indications of cardiac events. A cardiac rate is determined from the cardiac events in one of the first cardiac signal or the second cardiac signal, and pacing pulses are provided to the first cardiac region in order to maintain the cardiac rate at at least a minimum rate value. A pace protection interval starts when a cardiac event is detected in the first cardiac signal. The pace protection interval inhibits delivery of pacing pulses to the first cardiac region. When pacing pulses to the first cardiac region are inhibited because of the pace protection interval, pacing pulses are provided to the second cardiac region at a safety interval timed from the inhibited pacing pulse to the first cardiac region.

    摘要: Methods for failure recovery in a cardiac rhythm management system and apparatus capable of carrying out the methods. The methods include applying a first pacing therapy using one or more leads. The methods further include detecting a failure condition on one or more of the leads, wherein the failure condition prohibits or frustrates application of the first pacing therapy. The methods still further include applying a second pacing therapy using one or more of the leads subsequent to detecting the failure condition. The second pacing therapy is preferably chosen such that the detected failure does not interfere with the second pacing therapy. The second pacing therapy may be applied for only one cardiac cycle. The second pacing therapy may further be applied continuously until the failure condition is resolved, or it may be latched such that physician intervention is required to resume the first pacing therapy.

    摘要: A method for modulating one or more functions of an implanted medical device is disclosed. The method includes measuring a cardiovascular pressure of a patient; evaluating the cardiovascular pressure based on one or more characteristics of a cardiac cycle of the patient at the time the pressure was measured; and modulating one or more functions of the device based on the pressure. Also disclosed is a method for assessing a cardiovascular pressure of a patient with an implanted medical device that includes detecting one or more characteristics of a cardiac cycle of the patient's heart; detecting the cardiovascular pressure of the patient; classifying the cardiovascular pressure based on one or more characteristics of the cardiac cycle of the patient's heart; and displaying the cardiovascular pressure along with the classification. Also disclosed is a system for collection and display of a cardiovascular pressure of a patient.
