Application: An implantable medical device configured to provide an intracardiac function (Patent ID: US20240042217A1)
The patent filed by Biotronik SE & Co KG describes an implantable medical device designed to monitor intracardiac functions by detecting atrial events based on cardiac sense signals received by a sensor arrangement. The processing circuitry evaluates these signals over a number of cardiac cycles to determine if a reduction criterion is met, leading to a reduction in the sense threshold. This reduction criterion is fulfilled if no atrial events are detected in a certain number of cycles, prompting an adjustment in the device's sensitivity.
The device can be implemented with various configurations, such as using an electrode arrangement to receive electrical signals, being connected to a generator or a leadless pacemaker device. The processing circuitry is designed to adjust the sense threshold based on specific criteria, including reducing it by a certain factor if the reduction criterion is met for consecutive cycles. Additionally, the device can determine peak amplitudes associated with atrial events and update the sense threshold accordingly. The patent also includes a method for operating the implantable medical device, outlining the steps for receiving cardiac sense signals and processing them to detect atrial events and adjust the sense threshold based on specific criteria.
