ABSTRACT:
A rate responsive implantable pacemaker generates a metabolic demand parameter which is converted into a corresponding metabolic indicated parameter. The parameter is used to determine certain characteristics related to an exercise period and the patient, including exercise duration and intensity. These characteristics are used to dynamically calculate an exercise recovery period during which the pacing rate is elevated above a rate indicated by the metabolic parameter. Preferably, fuzzy logic circuitry is used for this purpose.
