Activity-sensing, rate-responsive pacing: improvement in myocardial performance with exercise.
A sensor that detects body activity by low frequency sonic impulses has been incorporated in a pacemaker so that body activity may be translated to an increased pacing rate in response to exercise. The pacemaker is designed for patients who may benefit from an increased cardiac output mediated by an...
