Abstract

Embodiments disclosed herein use multiple AF discriminators to determine whether to classify an AF detection as a false positive. One method includes detecting R-waves within an EGM or ECG signal, determining R-R intervals based on the R-waves, detecting AF based on the R-R intervals, and using one or more time-based AF discriminators to analyze one or more temporal features of the EGM or ECG signal within a window leading up to the AF detection to thereby determine whether to classify the AF detection as a false positive. In response to not classifying the AF detection as a false positive using the one or more time-based AF discriminators, one or more morphology-based AF discriminators are used to analyze one or more morphological features of the EGM or ECG signal within the window leading up to the AF detection to thereby determine whether to classify the AF detection as a false positive.
