  • Publication number: 20230346316
    Abstract: A medical device is configured to sense event signals from a cardiac electrical signal and determine maximum amplitudes of cardiac electrical signal segments associated with sensed event signals. The medical device is configured to determine at least one tachyarrhythmia metric based on at least a greatest one of the determined maximum amplitudes. The medical device may determine when the at least one tachyarrhythmia metric does not meet true tachyarrhythmia evidence and, in response, determine when the maximum amplitudes meet suspected noise criteria. The medical device may withhold a tachyarrhythmia detection and tachyarrhythmia therapy when suspected noise criteria are met.
