Abstract
A cardiac pacemaker and a method of its use. The pacemaker paces a patient's heart in a tachyarrhythmia prevention pacing mode for an extended time period, defines a metric of success of the tachyarrhythmia prevention pacing mode, monitors the metric over the extended time period and, responsive to the monitored metric, adjusts the tachyarrhythmia prevention pacing mode. Adjustment of the tachyarrhythmia prevention pacing mode may take the form of pacing the patient's heart with a different set of electrodes, pacing the patient's heart with a different tachyarrhythmia prevention pacing mode and/or terminating operation of the tachyarrhythmia prevention pacing mode.
