2.3.4 Repetitive Hysteresis
Repetitive hysteresis is expanded programmability of the Hysteresis feature. Repetitive hysteresis searches for an underlying intrinsic cardiac rhythm, which may exist slightly below the programmed lower rate (or
If an intrinsic cardiac rhythm is detected within the programmed number of beats between the hysteresis rate and the lower rate, the intrinsic rhythm is allowed and inhibits pacing by the
Figure 4. Repetitive Hysteresis
Repetitive hysteresis has been incorporated to promote spontaneous cardiac rhythm and may reduce device energy consumption.
NOTES:
Repetitive Hysteresis is not active during the programmed Night Mode.
