Intracardiac Electrical Bioimpedance as a Basis for Controlling of Pacing Rate Limits

Intracardiac impedance can provide real-time hemodynamic information to automatically control the lower and upper rate limits of a rate-adaptive pacemaker. It is necessary to overcome a number of technical challenges to accomplish this within the constraints of an implantable device
