ATRIAL ARRHYTHMIA EPISODE DETECTION IN A CARDIAC MEDICAL DEVICE

摘要

A method and medical device for detecting a cardiac event that includes sensing a cardiac signal, determining RR-intervals in response to the sensed cardiac signal, detecting a cardiac event in response to the RR-intervals, iteratively sensing a predetermined number of P-waves in response to detecting the cardiac event, and confirming the cardiac event in response to the iteratively sensed P-waves.
