Abstract
A method of finding rate responsive parameter settings in a functional relationship between sensor signal and stimulation frequency for a pacemaker by selecting desired heart rates optimal for a patient with respect to certain work loads. The respectively corresponding sensor signal values are obtained from the sensor, and the parameters are calculated by inserting the sensor signal values and selected frequencies into the functional relationship.
