ABSTRACT:
An implantable device for delivering cardiac pacing therapy in order to improve cardiac function is programmed to allow some amount of intrinsic activity to occur without otherwise the disturbing the pacing algorithm used to deliver therapy. Intrinsic cardiac cycles utilize the heart's native conduction system and thus serve to prevent the atrophy which may otherwise result from continuous pacing.
