Abstract: A pacemaker having a motion sensor delivers atrial-synchronized ventricular pacing by detecting events from a signal produced by the motion sensor and delivering ventricular pacing pulses at a rate that tracks the rate of the detected events. The pacemaker is configured to confirm atrial tracking of the ventricular pacing pulses by determining if detected events from the motion sensor signal are atrial events. The pacemaker is configured to adjust a control parameter used for detecting events from the motion sensor signal if atrial tracking is not confirmed.

Abstract: A medical device includes a motion sensor configured to produce a motion signal and a control circuit configured to set sensing control parameters and sense atrial events from the motion signal during ventricular cycles according to the sensing control parameters. In some examples, the control circuit is configured to determine a feature of the motion signal for at least some ventricular cycles, determine a metric of the motion signal based on the determined features, and adjust at least one of the sensing control parameters based on the metric.

Abstract: Various techniques for facilitating selection of a pacing vector for pacing a chamber of a heart are described. One example method described includes, for each of a plurality of vectors, delivering a pacing pulse to capture a first heart chamber, determining a first time interval between the pacing pulse and a sensed event in a second heart chamber, determining a capture detection window in response to the determined first time interval, and enabling a capture detection module to iteratively decrease a pacing pulse magnitude delivered in the first heart chamber until an event in the second heart chamber is not sensed during the determined capture detection window.

Abstract: A medical device is configured to produce a cardiac motion signal by sampling a signal produced by an axis of a motion sensor, starting a blanking period, suspending the sampling of the signal during at least a portion of the blanking period, and restarting the sampling of the signal at the sampling frequency before the blanking period has expired. The medical device may detect a cardiac event from the cardiac motion signal and generate a pacing pulse in response to detecting the cardiac event in some examples.

Abstract: A method includes detecting, by an implantable medical device (IMD), attachment to the IMD of at least one implantable medical lead with at least one electrode; and triggering by the IMD, based on the detecting of the attachment to the IMD of the at least one medical lead, a device test sequence in which the IMD performs the following qualification tests over an evaluation period: detecting an impedance for at least one electrical path that includes the at least one electrode to determine a connection status of the IMD to the at least one electrode; and comparing EGM (electrogram) amplitudes of the patient over an EGM test period against a predetermined threshold.

Abstract: A pacemaker having a motion sensor is configured to set atrial event sensing parameters used for sensing atrial systolic events from a motion signal produced by the motion sensor. The pacemaker sets at least one atrial event sensing parameter by identifying ventricular electrical events and setting a sensing window following each of the ventricular electrical events. The pacemaker may determine a feature of the motion signal produced by the motion sensor during each of the sensing windows and set the atrial event sensing parameter based on the determined features.

Abstract: A system includes an implantable medical device (IMD) and processing circuitry. The IMD includes sensing circuitry configured to sense cardiac electrical signals of a patient, and therapy delivery circuitry configured to deliver demand cardiac pacing to a heart of the patient based on the cardiac electrical signals. The processing circuitry is configured to: determine, for each of a plurality of time units, based on the cardiac electrical signals and the delivery of demand cardiac pacing during the time units, a plurality of metrics indicative of a need for continued delivery of demand cardiac pacing to the heart of the patient. The plurality of metrics includes a metric associated with a duration of one or more pacing episodes during the time unit. The processing circuitry is further configured to generate a graphical representation of the plurality of metrics of the plurality of time units for presentation to a user.

Abstract: A pacemaker is configured to operate in an atrial synchronous ventricular pacing mode and, after expiration of a conduction check time interval, switch to an asynchronous ventricular pacing mode that includes setting a ventricular pacing interval to a base pacing rate interval. The pacemaker is further configured to determine when atrioventricular block detection criteria are satisfied during the asynchronous ventricular pacing mode and, responsive to the atrioventricular block detection criteria being satisfied, switch back to the atrial synchronous ventricular pacing mode.
