Abstract
A medical device includes a motion sensor for producing a motion signal including cardiac event signals. The medical device generates a ventricular pacing pulse upon expiration of a pacing interval. The medical device determines a synchrony metric from the motion signal after a delivered ventricular pacing pulse and adjusts the pacing interval based on the synchrony metric.
