Abstract

An arrangement, in particular a heart pacemaker, has a measuring device for recording a heart activity measurement parameter. In order to record the measurement parameter in such a way that it is rid of disturbing signals, and can thus be used to evaluate the physiological functions of the heart pacemaker, the arrangement contains switching means which evaluate the signal curve of a measurement parameter during a heart cycle (n+1) as a function of the frequency (f) or duration (t.sub.S) of the previous heart cycle (n).
