| 摘要 |
An implantable cardiac rhythm management device capable of automatically detecting intrinsic and evoked response of a patient's heart and suitable for use during capture verification. The device of the present invention may operate in an automatic capture verification mode, wherein an electrocardiogram signal of a patient's heart is received and used by the device to determine whether a stimulation pulse evokes a response by the patient's heart. The device suspends the automatic capture verification mode and/or adjust the detection threshold dependent upon detected and/or measured noise, a determined amplitude of evoked response, a determined modulation in the evoked response, or detected and/or measured artifact. Further, the sensing circuit of the rhythm management device of the present invention reduces afterpotentials that result due to delivery of the stimulation pulses.
