摘要
An implantable medical interventional device responds to detection of any of a plurality of cardiac dysrhythmias in a human patient by performing an appropriate therapy which may include cardiac pacing, cardioversion or defibrillation according to the nature of the detected dysrhythmia. A first sensor detects whether and what type of dysrhythmia is occurring. A generator produces pulses and/or shocks for delivery to the patient's heart according to whether a detected dysrhythmia is bradycardia or slow pathologic tachycardia on the one hand, or fast tachycardia or fibrillation on the other hand. An optimizer in the device at all times maintains a substantial match of the cardiac pacing rate to the hemodynamic needs of the implant patient under conditions of rest and physical activity; including sensing and distinguishing periods of patient physical activity and rest, and generating a signal representative thereof to control the cardiac pacing rate accordingly. In this way, the device focuses on correction of cardiac pacing problems before they become sufficiently aggravated to require more aggressive cardioversion and defibrillation therapies.
