1. An implantable medical device, comprising:
- means for sensing a plurality of events;
means for detecting whether there is an increase in the frequency of first events of the plurality of events corresponding to onset of a second event of the plurality of sensed events;
means for adjusting parameters associated with delivery of the therapy in response to the detected increased frequency of first sensed events; and
means for delivering the therapy using the adjusted parameters.

Abstract
A method and device for controlling delivery of therapy in an implantable device that includes sensing a plurality of events, detecting whether there is an increase in the frequency of first events of the plurality of events corresponding to onset of a second event of the plurality of sensed events, adjusting parameters associated with delivery of the therapy in response to the detected increased frequency of first sensed events, and delivering the therapy using the adjusted parameters.
