SYSTÈME DE STIMULATION NODALE AURICULO-VENTRICULAIRE (AV) DURANT UNE TACHYARYTHMIE AURICULAIRE POUR EMPÊCHER UNE ADMINISTRATION DE THÉRAPIE INAPPROPRIÉE
The disclosure describes techniques for delivering electrical stimulation to decrease the ventricular rate response during an atrial tachyarrhythmia, such as atrial fibrillation. AV nodal stimulation is employed during an atrial tachyarrhythmia episode with rapid ventricular conduction to distinguish ventricular tachyarrhythmia from supraventricular tachycardia and thereby prevent delivering inappropriate therapy to a patient.
