    摘要: In some examples, a system can be used for delivering cardiac resynchronization therapy (CRT). The system may include a pacing device configured to be implanted within a patient. The pacing device can include a plurality of electrodes, signal generation circuitry configured to deliver ventricular pacing via the plurality of electrodes, and a sensor configured to produce a signal that indicates mechanical activity of the heart. Processing circuitry can be configured to identify one or more features of a cardiac contraction within the signal, and determine whether the contraction was a fusion beat based on the one or more features.

    摘要: Techniques are described for discriminating SVT and, in particular, rapidly conducting AF. The techniques include detecting an onset of a fast rate of ventricular events sensed from a cardiac electrical signal and detecting a pause in the fast rate of ventricular sensed events. A threshold number of ventricular event intervals required to detect a ventricular tachyarrhythmia is detected with each of the threshold number of ventricular event intervals being less than a tachyarrhythmia detection interval. Detection of the ventricular tachyarrhythmia and an electrical stimulation therapy for treating the ventricular tachyarrhythmia are withheld in response to at least the pause being detected.
