ABSTRACT:
An implantable automatic atrial defibrillator powered by a depletable battery power source conserves battery power for extending the predicted life of the defibrillator by intermittently detecting for atrial fibrillation. The atrial defibrillator includes a real time clock which, at spaced apart predetermined times, causes heart activity data to be stored in a memory. Thereafter, a normally deactivated atrial fibrillation detector is activated for processing the stored data to detect for atrial fibrillation.
