ABSTRACT:
An implantable medical device to deliver cardioverting energy to cardiac tissue in synchrony with detected ventricular depolarizations. The energy renders refractory, areas of the heart associated with a reciprocating or automatic tachycardia, thus reverting these tachyarrhythmias to normal sinus rhythm without the risk of stimulating the heart during the vulnerable portion of repolarization.
