IMPLANTABLE CARDIOVERTER-DEFIBRILLATOR (ICD) TACHYARRHYTHMIA DETECTION MODIFICATIONS RESPONSIVE TO DETECTED PACING

摘要

An implantable medical device comprises a sensing module configured to obtain electrical signals from one or more electrodes and a control module configured to process the electrical signals from the sensing module in accordance with a tachyarrhythmia detection algorithm to monitor for a tachyarrhythmia. The control module detects initiation of a pacing train delivered by a second implantable medical device, determines a type of the detected pacing train, and modifies the tachyarrhythmia detection algorithm based on the type of the detected pacing train.
