Abstract
An intracardiac ventricular pacemaker having a motion sensor, a pulse generator and a control circuit coupled to the pulse generator and the motion sensor is configured to identify a ventricular systolic event, detect a ventricular passive filling event signal from the motion signal, and determine a time interval from the ventricular systolic event to the ventricular passive filling event. The pacemaker establishes a minimum pacing interval based on the time interval.
