Patent ID: 11529521

Abstract:
A leadless pacemaker device configured to provide for an intra-cardiac pacing, including: processing circuitry configured to generate ventricular pacing signals for stimulating ventricular activity, and a reception device for receiving a sensing signal indicative of an atrial activity, wherein the processing circuitry is configured to detect an atrial event derived from said sensing signal, wherein the atrial event is a valid atrial sense event, where a series of atrial events lie within a range for a normal atrial rate, and/or when the atrial rate variability is within a certain range indicating a regular atrial rhythm, wherein in case a valid atrial sense event is detected, the processing circuitry is further configured to: determine ventricular pacing events according to atrial events, calculate ventricular-atrial time delays, determine a correction value based a measured time delay and the calculated time delay, and adjust the ventricular pacing timing based on the correction value.
