摘要

. Title: ATRIAL SENSING AND MULTIPLE SITE STIMULATION AS INTERVENTION FOR ATRIAL FIBRILLATION [err]AbstractAtrial sensing and stimulation as intervention for atrlal fibrillation. The present invention relates to a method of atrial defibrillation. In a variety of protocols varying combinations of conventional and biphasic stimulation are applied at threshold and subthreshold levels. In a preferred embodiment, the implantable electronic stimulation device of the present invention Includes multiple electrodes having stimulating and sensing capabilities. The small size of these electrodes allows for intravenous insertion into the patient.
