Abstract

A leadless pacemaker device configured to provide for an intra-cardiac pacing includes a processing circuitry configured to generate ventricular pacing signals for stimulating ventricular activity at a ventricular pacing rate and a sensor configuration configured to receive a sense signal over a multiplicity of heart cycles. The processing circuitry is configured to derive, from signal portions of the sense signal relating to the multiplicity of heart cycles, a combined signal portion and to analyze the combined signal portion for obtaining information relating to an atrial event. The processing circuitry is configured to sum a predefined number of signal portions relating to different heart cycles to obtain the combined signal portion. The leadless pacemaker device allows, in particular, for a reliable detection of signals relating to an atrial activity and the use of such signals for controlling a ventricular pacing rate for a ventricular pacing.
