    摘要: A pacing device and method for operating same is disclosed in which the point of origin of an arrhythmia is estimated in order to more provide more effective treatment. The origin of an arrhythmia may be estimated by analyzing the timing of electrical events as detected at different electrode sites and/or using different sensing vectors. Anti-tachycardia pacing (ATP) may then be delivered to the most appropriate location.

    摘要: Method and systems related to monitoring right ventricular function during pacing by a cardiac rhythm management device are described. One or more pacing parameters are selected to provide cardiac resynchronization therapy. For example, the one or more pacing parameters may be selected to provide an optimal or improved therapy. The heart is paced using the selected pacing parameters. While pacing with the selected parameters, pressure is sensed via a pressure sensor disposed the pulmonary artery. The sensed pressure is analyzed to determine right ventricular function achieved during the pacing using the selected pacing parameters. A signal, such as an alert signal or control signal, is generated based on the right ventricular function achieved during the pacing.

    摘要: Systems and methods for pacing the heart using resynchronization pacing delays that achieve improvement of cardiac function are described. An early activation pacing interval is calculated based on an optimal AV delay and an atrial to early ventricular activation interval between an atrial event and early activation of a ventricular depolarization. The early activation pacing interval for the ventricle is calculated by subtracting the measured AVEA from the calculated optimal AV delay. The early activation pacing interval is initiated responsive to sensing early activation of the ventricle and pacing is delivered relative to expiration of the early activation pacing interval.
