Abstract
Systems and methods for coordinating detection and/or treatment of abnormal heart activity using multiple implanted devices within a patient. In one example, cardiac activity may be sensed by two or more medical device, including a leadless cardiac pacemaker. Cardiac activity sensed by one of the implanted devices may be communicated to another one of the implanted devices. Abnormal heart activity may then be determined based on the cardiac activity of both of the medical device.
