    • A DDI pacemaker detects when a pacemaker mediated retrograde rhythm (PMRR) occurs, and automatically alters the DDI operation to terminate the PMRR. The PMRR is detected by measuring the P-to-V time interval in a DDI pacing cycle that terminates in the generation of a ventricular stimulation pulse (V-pulse). A PMRR is presumed to be present whenever the measured P-to-V interval exceeds a prescribed time interval, or whenever a programmed number of consecutive P-to-V time intervals, e.g., ten, are greater than the prescribed time interval. Once a PMRR is detected, the pacemaker automatically extends the post-ventricular atrial refractory period (PVARP) of the pacemaker to block any retrograde P-waves that may be occurring as part of the PMRR. As soon as the extended PVARP terminates, an alert time interval, T.sub.ALERT, begins that is selected to be of sufficient length to allow atrial tissue to repolarize and/or to detect a normal P-wave. If a P-wave is not sensed during the T.sub.ALERT interval, which will normally be the case in the presence of a PMRR, an atrial stimulation pulse (A-pulse) is generated that effectively prevents the next ventricular event from triggering a retrograde P-wave, thereby terminating the PMRR.
    • DDI起搏器检测何时发生起搏器介导的逆行节律(PMRR),并自动改变DDI操作以终止PMRR。 通过测量终止于产生心室刺激脉冲(V脉冲)的DDI起搏循环中的P-V时间间隔来检测PMRR。 只要测量的P-V间隔超过规定的时间间隔,或每当连续的P-to-V时间间隔(例如十)的编程数量大于规定的时间间隔时,PMRR被假定存在。 一旦检测到PMRR,起搏器自动延长起搏器的心室心房不应期(PVARP),以阻止可能作为PMRR一部分发生的任何逆行P波。 一旦延长的PVARP终止,则警报时间间隔TALERT开始被选择为具有足够的长度以允许心房组织复极化和/或检测正常P波。 如果在TALERT间隔期间没有检测到P波,则在存在PMRR的情况下通常将是这种情况,产生心房刺激脉冲(A脉冲),其有效地防止下一个心室事件触发逆行P- 波,从而终止PMRR。

    • A rate-responsive pacemaker includes a motion sensor mounted therein. The output signal from the motion sensor is a digital signal that can be connected directly to the digital processing and control circuits of the pacemaker in order to adjust its basic pacing rate as a function of the physical motion or activity that is sensed. The motion sensor includes an enclosed housing having a conductive element therein that partially fills the space of a cavity within the enclosed housing. The conductive element is free to roll, flow, or otherwise move around the inside of the housing in response to external forces. The external forces that cause the conductive element to move include the physical motion of the patient as well as the force of gravity. As the conductive element moves within the enclosed housing, it makes electrical contact with at least two of three electrodes that are selectively spaced around the inside periphery of the housing. By monitoring whether and for how long an electrical contact is made or broken between electrodes, a determination is thus made relative to the movement of the conductive element within the housing, and the rapidity with which such movement occurs. This sensed motion is directly related to the physical activity or movement of the patient. This signal is processed over time to determine whether and how the pacing rate of the pacemaker should be altered.

    • An automatically adjustable blanking circuit and method of generating an adjustable blanking interval for use with a dual channel implantable pacemaker includes means for generating a basic blanking interval for a first channel of the pacemaker each time a stimulation pulse is generated on a second channel. The basic blanking interval includes a first absolute refractory portion and a second relative refractory portion. During the absolute refractory portion, the sensing circuits of the first channel are disabled. During the relative refractory portion, the sensing circuits of the first channel are enabled and any activity sensed in the first channel is considered to be crosstalk or noise and the basic blanking interval is retriggered. Retriggering of the basic blanking interval continues for so long as activity is sensed in the first channel during the relative refractory portion of each retriggered basic blanking interval, up to a maximum blanking interval. If no activity is sensed during the relative refractory portion of the basic blanking interval, the blanking interval ends, and the sensing circuits of the first channel thereafter monitor the first channel for spontaneous cardiac activity.

    • A pacemaker and physiological sensor for use therewith that allows the rate at which the pacemaker delivers electrical stimulation pulses to the heart, or the escape interval during which a natural heart event must occur before an electrical stimulation pulse is delivered, to be adjusted as needed in order to satisfy the body's physiological needs. The sensor measures the depolarization time interval between an atrial stimulation pulse, A, and the responsive atrial or ventricle depolarization, P or R respectively, as an indication of the physiological demands placed on the heart. The time interval between a ventricular stimulation pulse, V, and the responsive ventricular depolarization, R, may also be measured and used as an indication of physiological need, and hence as an alternative criteria for rate control. Atrial depolarization is sensed by detecting a P-wave, and ventricular depolarization is preferably sensed by detecting an R-wave. A method of measuring A-P, A-R, or V-R intervals is used to ascertain if these intervals are increasing or decreasing. If, over several heart cycles or beats, an increase or decrease in these measurements is detected, the pacing interval set by the pacemaker is adjusted in an appropriate direction in order to adjust the heart stimulation rate accordingly.

    • A system for determining P-wave and R-wave capture in response to pacemaker supplied electrical stimuli. One embodiment includes a conventional bipolar atrial lead having a tip electrode, connected to a P-wave pace/sense amplifier and pulse output circuits within an implantable pacemaker, and a ring electrode, spaced apart from the tip electrode, connected to a P-wave sensing EGM amplifier within the pacemaker. The bandpass characteristics of the P-wave pace/sense amplifier allow detection of P-wave frequencies in the absence of atrial stimulation pulses. The bandpass characteristics of the P-wave sensing EGM amplifier allow detection of all electrical frequencies in the atrium within the bandpass chosen. Output signals from these two amplifiers are selectively telemetered to an external receiver, where the occurrence of atrial stimulation pulses and P-waves can be monitored. In operation, if constant time intervals between the monitored atrial stimulation pulses and P-wave occurrences are present, P-wave capture has occurred. In the event of variable time intervals, capture has not occurred and the magnitude of the atrial stimulation pulses can be increased until P-wave capture does occur. An alternative embodiment measures this time differential and makes the stimulation pulse adjustment automatically. Other embodiments use the same manual or automatic systems to determine R-wave capture.
