Abstract
Present adaptive-rate pacemakers use a range of sensors for implementation in open-loop and closed-loop control systems. Hemodynamic sensors that dete ct the mechanical action of the heart and bloodflow offer additional featur es to implement physiologic rate adaption in rate-controlling systems and r ate-limiting systems. Examples of 2 such sensors ore presented. (C) 2000 by Excerpta Medica, Inc.
