Abstract
A device and process for the processing of troubles of the atrial rhythm for an active implantable medical device. The device detects signals from at least the atrial cardiac activity, and stimulates both the atrial and ventricular cardiac cavities, detects the occurrence of atrial extra-systoles (ESA), and determines and releases an intermediate atrial escape interval (PPinter). The intermediate atrial escape interval is then applied during the detection of an atrial extra-systole for improved processing.
