Abstract
Because a determination of atrial tachycardia can occur too often where the pacemaker maintained true atrial interval value is designed to converge on the shortest A-A intervals, a method and apparatus either extends PVAB to cover inappropriate atrial senses that should not be counted in determining the true atrial interval, primarily where they occur after an atrial pace, or removes other AS events from consideration.
