  • Pacemaker with diagnostic intrinsic beat search
    Patent number: 10864378
    Abstract: Regulating cardiac activity may include pacing the patient's heart at a starting pacing rate and instigating an intrinsic heart beat search algorithm that includes pacing at a reduced rate for a period of time and capturing electrical signals representative of cardiac electrical activity while pacing at the reduced rate in order to determine a presence or absence of intrinsic heart beats. If intrinsic heart beats are not detected, the heart may be paced at a further reduced rate for a period of time. If intrinsic beats are detected, the heart may be paced again at the starting pacing rate. This may continue until intrinsic heart beats are detected or until a lower search rate limit is reached. Diagnostic data may be collected at each stage and transmitted to a display device for analysis by a physician or the like.
