Abstract
The difference between the divergences between the determined PR and RR intervals (dPR-dRR) is measured, cycle by cycle, and compared to two selected thresholds S1 and S2. If the difference exceeds threshold S1, a signal corresponding to a ventricular tachycardia is triggered. If the difference is below threshold S2, a signal corresponding to a supraventricular tachycardia related signal is triggered. The trigger signals may be used to control the therapeutic treatment of an implantable tachycardia treatment device accordingly.
