  • Biventricular heart stimulator
    Patent number: 8355781
    Abstract: An implantable heart stimulator (10), which has a right-atrial sensing unit (62), which is connected or is to be connected to a right-atrial electrode for recording electrical potentials of the myocardium of a right atrium, and is implemented to process electrical signals recorded via the right-atrial electrode, and to detect signal features characterizing a right-atrial stimulation and contraction in the electrical signal recorded via the right-atrial electrode. The heart stimulator (10) additionally has a left-ventricular sensing unit (66), which is connected or is to be connected to a left-ventricular electrode for recording electrical potentials of the myocardium of a left ventricle of a heart and is implemented to process electrical signals recorded via the left-ventricular electrode. The left-ventricular sensing unit (66) is implemented to detect signal features in the electrical signal recorded via the left-ventricular electrode which characterize a left-atrial contraction.
