title: Exercise-responsive cardiac pacemakers: review and performance evaluation.
abstract: The various aspects of the state of the art of exercise, or physiological responsive pacemakers (PM) are discussed. Models are used to assess the performance of PM controllers already on the market or in experimental stages. Emphasis is placed on comparison between open-loop and closed-loop controllers in light of the anticipation that future PM will have more sophisticated multiparameter expert system controllers.
