Method and apparatus for treatment of atrial fibrillation and flutter |
摘要 |
A stimulator for applying stimulus pulses to the AV nodal fat pad in response to sensed atrial rate exceeding a predetermined rate, in order to reduce the ventricular rate. The device also includes a cardiac pacemaker which serves to pace the ventricle in the event that the ventricular rate is lowered below a pacing rate, and provides for feedback control of the stimulus parameters applied to the AV nodal fat pad, as a function of the determined effect of the stimulus pulses on the ventricular rate.
