An implantable cardiac stimulation device and associated method for predicting the hemodynamic response to a rapid heart rhythm. The system includes an implantable cardiac stimulation device and associated sensors of electrical and mechanical heart function. The associated method includes measuring a mechanical restitution (MR) parameter or surrogate thereof, performing a comparative analysis of the MR parameter, and predicting an unstable or stable hemodynamic response to a rapid heart rate based on the comparative analysis. If an unstable hemodynamic response to a rapid rhythm is predicted, a more aggressive menu of arrhythmia therapies may be programmed to treat tachycardia. If a stable hemodynamic response is predicted, a less aggressive menu of therapies may be programmed to treat tachycardia.
