Abstract

See full text

An implantable cardiac rhythm system includes a first implantable medical device configured to detect a first heartbeat from a first location, and a second implantable medical device configured to detect the first heart beat of the patient from a second location. The second implantable medical device, upon detecting the first heart beat, may communicate an indication of the detected first heart beat to the first implantable medical device, and in response, the first implantable medical device may institute a blanking period having a blanking period duration such that a T-wave of the detected first heart beat is blanked out by the first implantable medical device so as to not be interpreted as a subsequent second heart beat. In some instances, the first implantable medical device is an SICD and the second implantable medical device is a LCP.
