摘要:
This disclosure is directed to techniques for delivering cardiac pacing pulses to a patient's heart by a cardiac system, such as an extra-cardiovascular ICD system. An ICD operating according to the techniques disclosed herein delivers cardiac pacing pulses using high-voltage therapy circuitry typically configured for delivering high-voltage cardioversion/defibrillation shocks. The ICD delivers the high-voltage pacing therapy via extra-cardiovascular electrodes, such as one or more extra-cardiovascular electrodes carried by a medical electrical lead extending from the ICD and/or the housing of the ICD.
