ABSTRACT:
A tachycardia eliminating apparatus includes a heartbeat detector which detects heartbeats in an input heart activity signal which delivers an output heartbeat signal indicating each detected heartbeat, a tachycardia detector coupled to the output of the heartbeat detector which generates a tachycardia indication signal in response to a detected tachycardia status of a heart as reflected in the heartbeat signal, and a respiratory system stimulator coupled to the output of the tachycardia detector and generating an output respiratory system stimulation signal for stimulating a respiratory system to achieve a stimulated breathing rate, with the ratio of the detected heartbeat rate to the stimulated breathing rate corresponding to a predetermined value.
