Abstract:
A process for determining whether the location of a stimulation electrode meets a selected heart performance criteria includes providing stimulation to the heart through the electrode and obtaining an impedance measurement during stimulation delivery using an impedance sensing vector formed by electrodes that do not include the stimulation electrode. The impedance measurements are processed, either alone or in combination with an electrogram, also obtained during stimulation, to obtain a measure of hemodynamic performance.
