Abstract
An implantable medical device and computer implemented methods comprise a sensing circuit configured to sense cardiac activity (CA) signals. An accelerometer is configured to be implanted in a patient and obtain accelerometer data along at least one axis. A memory is configured to store program instructions and device parameters associated with each ventricular arrhythmia (VA) therapy in a collection of VA therapies with different levels of intensity. One or more processors execute the program instructions and are configured to analyze the CA signals over one or more cardiac beats, determine a VA episode based on the analysis of the CA signals, determine a posture of the patient based on the accelerometer data in response to the determination of the VA episode, and select a first VA therapy from the collection of VA therapies based on the posture.
