Classification: CPC A | IPC A

Claim 0:
1. A method, comprising:
under control of one or more processors within an implantable medical device (IMD),
sensing near field (NF) and far field (FF) signals for multiple beats;
applying an arrhythmia detection algorithm to the NF signals for identifying events within the NF signal;
monitoring the events to detect a candidate arrhythmia condition in the NF signals based on the events identified for the corresponding multiple beats;
identifying the candidate arrhythmia condition to be an under-detected arrhythmia based on the events identified;
in response to the identification of the under-detected arrhythmia, analyzing the FF signals for a presence of an under-detected arrhythmia indicator; and
delivering an arrhythmia therapy based on the presence of the under-detected arrhythmia indicator in the FF signals and the identification of the under-detected arrhythmia in the NF signals.
