A medical device, such as an extra-cardiovascular implantable cardioverter defibrillator (ICD), senses R-waves from a first cardiac electrical signal by a first sensing channel and stores a time segment of a second cardiac electrical signal acquired by a second sensing channel in response to each sensed R-wave. The medical device determines at least one noise parameter from a group of the stored time segments of the second cardiac electrical signal, detects noise based on the noise parameter, and withholds detection of a tachyarrhythmia episode in response to detecting the noise.

摘要:
A medical device and associated method for detecting and treating tachyarrhythmias acquires a cardiac signal using electrodes coupled to a sensing module. During an initial detection process, a shockable cardiac rhythm is detected by a processing module configured to compare the cardiac signal to a first set of detection criteria. By analyzing the cardiac signal, the processing module establishes at least one patient-specific detection threshold during the initial detection process. Upon establishing the at least one patient-specific detection threshold, the initial detection process is stopped, and a next detection process is started which includes comparing the cardiac signal to a second set of detection criteria including the at least one patient-specific detection threshold. In some embodiments, user programming of tachyarrhythmia detection parameters is not required.

An implantable medical device system includes an implantable cardioverter defibrillator (ICD) for detecting and treating ventricular tachycardia (VT). The ICD includes a sensing module for sensing a cardiac signal from available cardiac signal sensing vectors. A control module generates morphology templates of the cardiac signals for multiple patient postures for each of the available sensing vectors and determines a set of posture-independent template features. An unknown cardiac rhythm is classified in response to comparing features of a cardiac signal received during the unknown rhythm to the set of posture-independent features.
