Abstract:
1. A medical device system for guiding a cardiac ablation therapy, comprising; a plurality of implantable electrodes for sensing cardiac signals; an implantable cardiac event detector coupled to the plurality of implantable electrodes for detecting spontaneous cardiac events from the sensed cardiac signal; an implantable pulse generator coupled to the plurality of implantable electrodes for delivering pacing pulses; an implantable controller to control the implantable pulse generator to deliver a plurality of pacing pulses in response to detecting a spontaneous cardiac event using a first electrode of the plurality of implantable electrodes and measure a return cycle length in response to the plurality of pacing pulses; a processor configured: an external display configured to display data comprising the estimated ablation site corresponding to the cluster of spontaneous cardiac events to guide the ablation therapy; and an ablation system, the ablation system comprising: wherein the ablation system, the implantable controller, and the processor are further configured to cooperatively:
