Abstract
A medical device and a method is suggested for assessing the risk of R on T events. The device comprises a memory, input means for acquiring or receiving an electrogram signal and processing means. The processing means are adapted to detect R-wave and T-waves represented by said electrogram, establish a QT-RR regression model based detected R-waves and T-waves, estimate a vulnerable period, and store estimated vulnerable period data in said memory. Likewise, the method comprises the steps of to detecting R-wave and T-waves represented by an electrogram, establishing a QT-RR regression model based detected R-waves and T-waves, estimating a vulnerable period, and storing estimated vulnerable period data.
