Abstract
A multi-function implantable medical device having a plurality of microprocessors therein. The device, which may be capable of functioning as a pacemaker, cardioverter, and defibrillator, is equipped with two or more processors, which may be configured in a master/slave, peer, or other type of relationship. In one embodiment, primary device functions to be performed continuously are allocated to a dedicated, master processor, while advanced functions that may be only periodically required, are allocated among one or more slave processors. In this way, processing in the device is not limited to the relatively short refractory periods as in prior devices.
