A neural stimulator senses a reference signal indicative of cardiac cycles each including a predetermined type timing reference event using a sensor external to the heart and blood vessels. The delivery of the neural stimulation pulses are synchronized to that timing reference event. Examples of the timing reference event include a predetermined cardiac event such as a P-wave or an R-wave detected from a subcutaneous ECG signal, a predetermined type heart sound detected from an acoustic signal, and a peak detected from a hemodynamic signal related to blood flow or pressure.
