摘要:
A medical device system and associated method for guiding ablation therapy sense cardiac signals using implantable electrodes and detect spontaneous cardiac events from the sensed cardiac signals. Pacing pulses are delivered and a return cycle length is measured in response to the plurality of pacing pulses. The spontaneous cardiac event is clustered with a previously detected cardiac event in response to the measured return cycle length, and a targeted ablation site is estimated in response to the measured return cycle length. A transit time interval, corresponding to a distance traversed by a depolarization associated with a last one of the plurality of pacing pulses when a reset condition occurs, is computed using the return cycle length, and the ablation site is estimated in response to the computed transit time interval.
