Abstract

See full text

A method of detecting a cardiac event in a medical device that includes sensing cardiac signals from a plurality of electrodes forming a first sensing vector and a second sensing vector, and determining first heart rate estimates associated with cardiac signals sensed from the first sensing vector and cardiac signals sensed from the second sensing vector in response to a metric of heart rate associated with the sensed cardiac signals. Second heart rate estimates associated with the first sensing vector and with the second sensing vector are generated in response to the determined first heart rate estimates, and a determination is made as to whether both of the second heart rate estimates are greater than a predetermined heart rate threshold.
