Abstract
An intracardiac ventricular pacemaker is configured to detect a ventricular diastolic event from a motion signal received by a pacemaker control circuit from a motion sensor. The control circuit starts an atrial refractory period having an expiration time set based on a time of the detection of the ventricular diastolic event. The control circuit detects an atrial systolic event from the motion signal after expiration of the atrial refractory period and controls a pulse generator of the pacemaker to deliver a pacing pulse to a ventricle of a patient's heart at a first atrioventricular pacing time interval after the atrial systolic event detection.
