ABSTRACT:
A system within an implantable stimulation device and a method for limiting the extent to which rate-responsiveness can be utilized during low battery periods. A battery threshold detector is utilized to detect when the battery is below a predetermined threshold. The implantable stimulation device then switches to base rate, but with a preset recovery time used to prevent rapid rate change. In an alternate embodiment, the device may then become rate-responsive again, but with a lower allowable maximum sensor rate being used.
