  • Method and apparatus for rate accuracy enhancement in ventricular tachycardia detection
    Patent number: 7346388
    Abstract: An implantable cardioverter/defibrillator (ICD) executes a rate accuracy enhancement algorithm to select measured atrial and ventricular intervals for classifying a detected tachycardia based on average atrial and ventricular rates calculated from the selected atrial and ventricular intervals. The detected tachycardia is classified as ventricular tachycardia (VT) if the average ventricular rate is substantially higher than the average atrial rate.
    Type: Grant

    Date of Patent: March 18, 2008
    Assignee: Cardiac Pacemakers, Inc.
    Inventors: Bijan Elahi, Joseph M. Bocek, Jaeho Kim
