Method and apparatus for improving specificity of atrial tachycardia detection techniques in dual-unipolar or dual-bipolar implantable cardiac stimulation systems

TY - PAT

T1 - Method and apparatus for improving specificity of atrial tachycardia detection techniques in dual-unipolar or dual-bipolar implantable cardiac stimulation systems

AU - Levine, Paul A.

N1 - Techniques are provided for allowing Automatic Mode Switching (AMS) to be exploited within dual unipolar systems employing Combipolar sensing. Relative refractory windows are opened within both the atrial and ventricular refractory periods for the purposes of determining the atrial rate using Combipolar sensing logic.
