Abstract:
1. An implantable medical device, comprising: a receiver circuit configured to acquire cardiac signals of a patient; and a processing circuit configured to process the acquired cardiac signals to detect an ischemic event, and to control application of neurostimulation to the patient based on the detection of the ischemic event, wherein: the receiver circuit is further configured to acquire additional cardiac signals after the neurostimulation is applied to the patient, and the processing circuit is further configured to determine if the ischemic event is terminated based on the acquired additional cardiac signals, and to adapt neurostimulation to the patient based on the determination, wherein the processing circuit is further configured to control the receiver circuit and the application of the neurostimulation to prevent acquisition of the cardiac signals during neurostimulation.
