Abstract:
Systems and methods involve an intrathoracic cardiac stimulation device operable to provide autonomous cardiac sensing and energy delivery. The cardiac stimulation device includes a housing configured for intrathoracic placement relative to a patient's heart. A fixation arrangement of the housing is configured to affix the housing at an implant location within cardiac tissue or cardiac vasculature. An electrode arrangement supported by the housing is configured to sense cardiac activity and deliver stimulation energy to the cardiac tissue or cardiac vasculature. Energy delivery circuitry in the housing is coupled to the electrode arrangement. Detection circuitry is provided in the housing and coupled to the electrode arrangement. Communications circuitry may optionally be supported by the housing. A controller in the housing coordinates delivery of energy to the cardiac tissue or cardiac vasculature in accordance with an energy delivery protocol appropriate for the implant location.

Claim (Index 1):
A leadless cardiac pacemaker (LCP) comprising:\n a housing configured for implantation in a patient's heart, the housing having a first end and an opposing second end; a fixation arrangement adjacent the first end of the housing, the fixation arrangement including one or more tines that are configured to fix the housing to cardiac tissue at an implant site within the patient's heart; an explant assist feature adjacent the second end of the housing for engaging an extraction member to aid in explanting the LCP from the implant site; two or more electrodes supported by the housing, at least one of the electrodes extending annularly around the housing; energy delivery circuitry situated in the housing and operatively coupled to two or more of the electrodes for delivering pacing therapy to the patient's heart; detection circuitry situated in the housing and operatively coupled to two or more of the electrodes for detecting cardiac electrical activity of the patient's heart; communications circuitry in the housing; and controller circuitry situated in the housing and operatively coupled to the energy delivery circuitry, the detection circuitry and the communications circuitry, the controller circuitry configured to deliver pacing therapy to the patient's heart via the energy delivery circuitry based at least in part on the detected cardiac electrical activity from the detection circuitry.
