ABSTRACT:
A method and apparatus for cardiac pacing, which provides for delivery of pacing pulses at an increased rate in response to a detected rapid drop in heart rate. A rapid drop may be detected in response to a drop of greater than a defined amount from the highest detected heart rate, over a preceding time period. Alternatively, an unbroken sequence of pacing pulses delivered at a base pacing rate may trigger pacing at an increased pacing rate.
