ABSTRACT:
A method of using an implantable medical device (IMD) to monitor a ventricular contraction rate of a subject, monitor an atrial contraction rate of the subject, declare tachyarrhythmia if the ventricular contraction rate exceeds the atrial contraction rate, and declare a slow tachyarrhythmia when the ventricular rate exceeds the atrial rate and the ventricular rate is less than a specified maximum pacing rate.
