Abstract
A cardiac contractility modulating (CCM) device (30) includes an anti-arrhythmic therapy unit (38) for detecting a cardiac arrhythmia in a heart (2) of a patient based on processing electrical signals related to cardiac activity sensed at the heart, and for delivering anti-arrhythmic therapy to the heart. The device includes a cardiac contractility modulating (CCM) unit (40) capable of delivering cardiac contractility modulating (CCM) signals to the heart for modulating the contractility of a portion of the heart. The device (30) includes a power source (165). The device may be an implantable device or a non-implantable device. A method for delivering anti-arrhythmic therapy to a heart. The method includes applying one or more non-excitatory cardiac contractility modulating electrical signals to said heart.
