    摘要: A medical device, e.g., an implantable medical device, delivers one or more neurally-excitable stimulation pulses to myocardial tissue during a period when the tissue is refractory. The width of the pulses is less than or equal to approximately one half millisecond. In some embodiments, the current amplitude of the pulses is less than or equal to approximately twenty milliamps. In exemplary embodiments, the medical device delivers a pulse train of six or fewer pulses separated from each other by an interval that is greater than or equal to approximately ten milliseconds. In some embodiments, the medical device delivers pulses according to a schedule stored in a memory, or as a function of a monitored physiological parameter of a patient, such as an intracardiac pressure. In some embodiments, the medical device suspends or withholds delivery of neurally-excitable based on detection of cardiac ischemia.

    摘要: A method and apparatus is provided for determining whether a current atrial-ventricular (AV) delay during cardiac pacing is appropriate for proper mechanical coupling of the atrium and ventricle. If proper mechanical coupling is determined to not exist, an additional atrial contraction is induced within the same ventricular cycle to maintain atrial-ventricular mechanical coupling.

    摘要: A system and method for detecting and classifying cardiac arrhythmias based on cardiac pressure signals or the combination of cardiac electrical and cardiac pressure signals. A cardiac electrogram signal is sensed to derive a cardiac rate from which an arrhythmia detection is made when the cardiac rate meets arrhythmia detection criteria. An intracardiac pressure signal is sensed to derive an indicator of tachycardia based on an analysis of the pressure signal in either the time domain or frequency domain. The detected arrhythmia is classified as tachycardia or fibrillation based on the tachycardia indicator wherein the tachycardia indicator is compared to tachycardia detection criteria and the arrhythmia is classified as tachycardia if tachycardia detection criteria are met and the arrhythmia is classified as fibrillation if the tachycardia detection criteria are not met.

    摘要: An implantable medical device and associated method deliver a therapy to an autonomic nerve. The therapy delivery includes delivering therapeutic low frequency (LF) electrical stimulation pulses to the autonomic nerve and delivering a high frequency electrical signal to the autonomic nerve during the LF frequency stimulation pulse delivery. The high frequency stimulation signal blocks activation of autonomic nerve fibers innervating a non-targeted tissue during the therapeutic LF stimulation pulse delivery.

    摘要: Implantable pulse generators (IPGs) are adapted to deliver stimulation to refractory myocardial tissue. An IPG nominally delivers one to six monophasic stimulation pulses. Because monophasic stimulation tends to accumulate polarization, a programmable blanking period of between about 20 milliseconds (ms) and about 300 ms is implemented (subsequent to delivery of the last pulse in a RPS pulse train) to allow recovery from polarization. The stimulation pulse width is about 0.03 ms to about 1.6 ms and voltage amplitude of 0.5 volts to 8 volts at about 50 Hz. The amplitude of electrical current of the stimulation pulses is less than or equal to approximately 50 milliamps. The pulses are delivered to multiple sites within a cardiac chamber and device performance and/or diagnostic information can be stored within a memory structure and reviewed to confirm delivery of a desired therapy regimen.
