    • A pacemaker or implantable cardioverter defibrillator is provided with a microcontroller having a general purpose microprocessor for performing high-level device functions and a sequencer for performing routine pacing functions. The general purpose microprocessor is programmed using an instruction set capable of general programming applications. The sequencer is programmed using a very simple instruction set having instructions selected only for performing routine pacing functions. The sequencer may be, for example, a programmable state machine. By providing a programmable sequencer for controlling routine pacing operations, the microprocessor is thereby free to devote its resources to performing high-level functions. Hence, the microprocessor may be operated at a lower clock frequency than would otherwise be needed if the microprocessor were also required to perform routine pacing functions and power savings are thereby achieved. By controlling all routine pacing operations using the programmable sequencer, the routine operations are thereby more expediently and reliably performed. Also, because software for the sequencer is developed using only the simple instruction set associated therewith, pacing software is quickly and reliably developed. Additional benefits are gained by isolating the pacing software from the high-level functional software to permit, for example, the microprocessor software to be replaced without affecting the sequencer software, and vice versa. Also, a method is described for generating an integrated circuit having a configuration optimized based upon predetermined software requirements. The method may be used to design the sequencer.

    • A self-adjusting rate-responsive pacemaker includes a conventional programmable pulse generator, a physiological sensor, and a processor, all packaged within an implantable case. The pulse generator generates heart stimulation pulses on demand, or as otherwise programmed, as controlled by a sensor-indicated rate signal. The sensor-indicated rate signal is derived from a raw signal obtained from the physiological sensor, and provides some indication of whether the heart rate should increase or decrease. The processor converts the raw signal to the sensor-indicated rate signal in accordance with a desired relationship (FIGS. 2, 3, 7A, 8). A minimum sensor signal value sets the minimum rate at which the pacemaker generates stimulation pulses, and a maximum sensor signal value sets the maximum rate at which the pacemaker generates stimulation pulses. Both the minimum and maximum sensor signal values may be programmed to automatically be adjusted based on the sensor signals occurring during a prior prescribed time period. In one embodiment, the sensor signals occurring during the prescribed time period are classified into three categories: low, high, and intermediate. The minimum sensor signal value is then computed as the average of the low sensor signals, while the maximum sensor signal is computed as the average of the high sensor signals.

    • A device for use as a rate-responsive pacemaker is disclosed in which the pacing interval is controlled by the average amplitude of a raw signal generated by a suitable physiological sensor and processed by an average amplitude converter to generate an output average amplitude signal coupled to the pacemaker control circuits to adjust the pacing interval. The average amplitude converter may be a rectifying amplifier and an integrating circuit, a voltage controlled oscillator whose frequency is measured over a suitable time interval using a time interval generator and a counter with the output of the counter being used by the control circuits of the pacemaker to vary its pacing interval, or means for measuring average amplitude of the raw signal and storing that measurement in memory and periodically processing it to alter the transfer characteristics of the rate-responsive pacemaker.

    • A rate-responsive pacemaker which includes a conventional programmable pulse generator, a physiological sensor, and a processor is disclosed which generates heart stimulation pulses on demand, or as otherwise programmed, as controlled by a rate control signal which is derived from the physiological sensor. The physiological sensor generates a raw signal which varies as a function of some physiological parameter, such as activity level to provide some indication of whether the heart rate should increase or decrease, and hence whether the pacemaker should change the rate at which pacing pulses are provided. The processor converts the raw signal to the sensor-indicated rate signal in accordance with a selectable transfer relationship which defines the sensor-indicated rate signal as a function of a set of discrete sensor level index signals. The sensor-indicated rate signal remains at a minimum value or base rate for all sensor level index signals below a prescribed rate response threshold, with this rate response threshold being set automatically by the processor as a function of a running average of the sensor level index signals monitored over a prescribed time period.
