Abstract

Systems and methods for monitoring and treating patients with heart failure are discussed. The system can store in a memory stimulation parameters, including stimulation timing parameters for a plurality of heart rate ranges. The system includes a plurality of timers with respective durations for the plurality of heart rate ranges. A stimulation control circuit can identify a target heart range in which a detected heart rate falls, and measure an atrioventricular (AV) conduction characteristic value in response to the timer for the target heart range being expired at the detected heart rate. The stimulation control circuit can update a stimulation parameter corresponding to the target heart rate range using the measured AV conduction characteristic. The updated stimulation parameter can be used in cardiac stimulation.
