    摘要: Response to cardiac resynchronization therapy is predicted for a given stimulation site so that an atrioventricular delay of an implantable device administering cardiac resynchronization therapy may be set to a proper amount. The first deflection of ventricular depolarization is measured, such as through a surface electrocardiogram or through an intracardiac electrogram measured by a lead positioned in the heart at the stimulation site. The maximum deflection of the ventricular depolarization is then measured by the lead positioned at the stimulation site. The interval of time between the first deflection and the maximum deflection of the ventricular depolarization is compared to a threshold to determine whether the stimulation site is a responder site. If the interval is larger than the threshold, then the site is a responder and the atrioventricular delay of the implantable device may be set to less than the intrinsic atrioventricular delay of the patient. Otherwise, the atrioventricular may be set to approximately equal the intrinsic atrioventricular delay.

    摘要: Cardiac monitoring and/or stimulation methods and systems that provide one or more of monitoring, diagnosing, defibrillation, and pacing. Cardiac signal separation is employed to detect, monitor, track and/or trend ischemia using cardiac activation sequence information. Ischemia detection may involve sensing composite cardiac signals using implantable electrodes, and performing a signal separation that produces one or more cardiac activation signal vectors associated with one or more cardiac activation sequences. A change in the signal vector may be detected using subsequent separations. The change may be an elevation or depression of the ST segment of a cardiac cycle or other change indicative of myocardial ischemia, myocardial infarction, or other pathological change. The change may be used to predict, quantify, and/or qualify an event such as an arrhythmia, a myocardial infarction, or other pathologic change. Information associated with the vectors may be stored and used to track the vectors.

    摘要: A system comprises a cardiac signal sensing and a processing circuit. The cardiac signal sensing circuit senses a first cardiac signal segment that includes a QRS complex and a second cardiac signal segment that includes a fiducial indicative of local ventricular activation. The processor circuit includes a site activation timer circuit configured to determine a time duration between a fiducial of the QRS complex of the first cardiac signal segment and the fiducial of the second cardiac signal segment. The processor circuit is configured to generate, using the determined time duration, an indication of optimality of placement of one or more electrodes for delivering therapy and provide the indication to at least one of a user or process.
