An atrial defibrillation system includes an implanted atrial defibrillator (30) having an atrial defibrillation detector (70) for detecting atrial fibrillation, and a cardioverter (76) for cardioverting the atria of a heart (16). The implanted atrial defibrillator (30) further includes a receiver (105) for receiving commands from an external non-implanted transmitter (100). A non-implanted communication device (110) includes a transmitter (116) for transmitting a command to the receiver (105). The command causes only the atrial fibrillation detector (70) to be activated resulting only in the detection for atrial fibrillation without committing to atrial fibrillation cardio-version should atrial fibrillation be detected.

La présente invention concerne un système de défibrillation auriculaire comprenant un défibrillateur auriculaire implanté (30) muni d'un détecteur de fibrillation auriculaire (70) et d'un défibrillateur (76) permettant d'interrompre la fibrillation auriculaire au niveau du coeur (16). De plus, le défibrillateur auriculaire implanté (30) comprend un récepteur (105) qui reçoit des ordres d'un émetteur non implanté externe (100). Un dispositif de communication non implanté (110) comprend un émetteur (116) qui transmet un ordre à un récepteur (105). Cet ordre induit seulement l'activation du détecteur de fibrillation auriculaire (70), sans que la détection d'une fibrillation n'entraîne la mise en oeuvre du processus de défibrillation auriculaire.
