ABSTRACT:
An implantable cardiac rhythm management device includes an accelerometer along with apparatus for processing the analog signal output from the accelerometer for deriving therefrom the time of occurrence of a selected heart sound in relation to a previously occurring ventricular depolarization event. The thus-derived heart sound information can be used to establish a hemodynamic upper rate limit for a rate adaptive pacemaker.
