A leadless implantable medical device (IMD) and method of using same are provided. The IMD comprises: a housing, a fixation element, electrodes configured to sense electrical cardiac activity (CA) signals over a period of time, an HS sensor configured to sense HS signals over the period of time, memory to store specific executable instructions, and one or more processors. The one or more processors and method: identify a characteristic of interest (COI) of a heartbeat from the CA signals, calculate a center of mass (COM) for at least one HS based on the HS signals to obtain a corresponding at least one HS COM, and calculate at least one of a therapy-related (TR) delay or a sensing-related (SR) blanking interval (BI) based on the at least one HS COM.
