Implantable biventricular cardiac stimulator with capture monitoring by IECG analysis

In a cardiac stimulating device for biventricular stimulation, an intracorporeal ECG signal obtained from measuring electrode leads located outside of the heart is used for monitoring capture of the right and left ventricles. If loss of capture is detected in any of the ventricles then the pacing pu...

Zusammenfassung:In a cardiac stimulating device for biventricular stimulation, an intracorporeal ECG signal obtained from measuring electrode leads located outside of the heart is used for monitoring capture of the right and left ventricles. If loss of capture is detected in any of the ventricles then the pacing pulse energy will be adjusted to obtain complete biventricular capture.
