Abstract: Systems and methods for pacing cardiac conductive tissue are described. An embodiment of a medical system includes an electrostimulation circuit to generate His-bundle pacing (HBP) pulses to stimulate a His bundle, and a cardiac event detector to detect a His-bundle activity within a time window following an atrial activity. The cardiac event detector may use a cross-chamber blanking, or an adjustable His-bundle sensing threshold, to avoid or reduce over-sensing of far-field atrial activity and inappropriate inhibition of HBP therapy. The electrostimulation circuit may deliver HBP in the presence of the His-bundle activity. The system may further recognize the detected His-bundle activity as either a FFPW or a valid inhibitory event, and deliver or withhold HBP therapy based on the recognition of the His-bundle activity.
