  • Rate-adaptive cardiac pacemaker
    Patent number: 7065404
    Abstract: A rate-adaptive cardiac pacemaker has a detection unit 1, an event-determining unit 2, a stimulation control unit 3 and a stimulation unit 11, wherein the event-determining unit 2 is connected to the detection unit 1 and the stimulation control unit 3, and the stimulation unit 11 is connected to the stimulation control unit 3. The detection unit 1 detects ECG signals of a heart 100, and the event-determining unit 2, on the basis of the ECG signals detected by the detection unit 1 and signals emitted by the stimulation control unit 3, determines whether a detected event represents a spontaneous or a stimulated event (Ap, As; AES, Vp, Vs, VES).
