SYSTÈME POUR ESTIMATION AMÉLIORÉE DU TEMPS DE STIMULATION DU VENTRICULE GAUCHE PAR RAPPORT À UNE ACTIVATION DU VENTRICULE DROIT INTRINSÈQUE EN THÉRAPIE DE RESYNCHRONISATION CARDIAQUE
A method and system of cardiac pacing is disclosed. A baseline rhythm is determined. The baseline rhythm includes a baseline atrial event and a baseline right ventricular RV event from an implanted cardiac lead or a leadless device, a pre-excitation interval determined from the baseline atrial event and the baseline RV event, and a plurality of activation times determined from a plurality of body-surface electrodes. A determination is made as to whether a time interval measured from an atrial event to a RV event is disparate from another time interval measured from the atrial event to an earliest RV activation time of the plurality of activation times. A correction factor is applied to the pre-excitation interval to obtain a corrected pre-excitation interval in response to determining the RV event is disparate from the earliest RV activation time. The processor is configured to signal the pulse generator to deliver electrical stimuli to a left ventricle (LV) using the corrected pre-excitation interval before RV sensing time.
