System and method for detection enhancement programming
First Claim
1. A method for delivering shocks to a heart, the method comprising:
- displaying a plurality of predetermined arrhythmia zones, a plurality of rate thresholds, and a plurality of detection buttons, the predetermined arrhythmia zones each identified by a rate threshold of the plurality of rate thresholds, the detection buttons each associated with an arrhythmia zone of the displayed plurality of predetermined arrhythmia zones to allow for access to detection parameters for the associated arrhythmia zone;
receiving selection of a detection button from the displayed plurality of detection buttons;
displaying one or more predetermined clinical rhythms for which rhythm discrimination is available for the arrhythmia zone associated with the selected detection button to allow for selection of a clinical rhythm from the displayed one or more predetermined clinical rhythms;
receiving the selection of the clinical rhythm;
identifying one or more detection enhancements associated with the selection of the clinical rhythm from a plurality of predetermined detection enhancements each being a set of rules for determining when to deliver one or more of the shocks; and
setting detection enhancement parameters associated with the identified one or more detection enhancements; and
programming the detection enhancement parameters into a device to perform the identified one or more detection enhancements.

Abstract
A system and method of enabling detection enhancements selected from a plurality of detection enhancements. In a system having a plurality of clinical rhythms, including a first clinical rhythm, where each of the detection enhancements is associated with the clinical rhythms, the first clinical rhythm is selected. The first clinical rhythm is associated with first and second detection enhancements. When the first clinical rhythm is selected, parameters of the first and second detection enhancements are set automatically. A determination is made as to whether changes are to be made to the parameters. If so, one or more of the parameters are modified under user control.
