Claim Text:
1. A method for evaluating an implanted electrical lead condition, the method comprising: sensing a test electrogram having test atrial cardiac potentials and test ventricular cardiac potentials using an electrode coupled to the implanted electrical lead; comparing one or more features of an atrial template with one or more features of the test atrial potentials; comparing one or more features of a ventricular template with one or more features of the test ventricular potentials; comparing the one or more features of the test atrial potentials to the one or more features of the test ventricular potentials; and determining the implanted electrical lead condition based on the comparison of the one or more features of the atrial template with one or more features of the test atrial potentials, the comparison of the one or more features of the ventricular template with one or more features of the test ventricular potentials, and the comparison of the test atrial potentials and test ventricular potentials.
