Abstract
A method includes determining whether electrical activity is indicative of atrial fibrillation, determining whether mechanical activity is indicative of atrial fibrillation, and adjusting a pacing parameter or mode based on whether the electrical activity and the mechanical activity are indicative of atrial fibrillation. The electrical activity may be detected based on a far-field measurement. The method may be performed using a leadless implantable medical device.
