ABSTRACT:
A cardiostimulator device includes an accelerometric sensor positioned on the electrode or cathetar intended to be inserted in the cardiac mass, possibly being associated with a stimulating or sensing electrode. In this way, it is possible to regulate the frequency (and in general all the methods) of stimulation in dependence on the so-called natural heart acceleration correlated to the physical activity of the patient.
