One aspect of the present subject matter relates to an implantable medical system. An embodiment of the system includes a baroreflex stimulator and a cardiac stimulator. The baroreflex stimulator applies a baroreflex stimulation signal through an electrode and provides a signal indicating that the baroreflex signal is being applied. The cardiac stimulator applies a pacing therapy with a pacing rate, receives the signal from the baroreflex stimulator, and increases the pacing rate of the pacing therapy to compensate for cardiac output compromised by applying the baroreflex stimulation signal. Other aspects are provided herein. |
