Abstract

An implantable medical device system is configured to detect a tachyarrhythmia from a cardiac electrical signal and start an ATP therapy delay period. The implantable medical device determines whether the cardiac electrical signal received during the ATP therapy delay period satisfies ATP delivery criteria. A therapy delivery module is controlled to cancel the delayed ATP therapy if the ATP delivery criteria are not met and deliver the delayed ATP therapy if the ATP delivery criteria are met.
