Abstract:
1. A system comprising: a sensing module configured to detect, from a first location, a first depolarization fiducial corresponding to a depolarization of a first heart chamber, and further configured to detect, from a different second location, a second depolarization fiducial corresponding to a depolarization of the first heart chamber; and a controller, coupled to the sensing module, the controller configured to determine whether the first or second depolarization fiducial occurs earlier in a cardiac cycle; wherein the controller is configured to indicate, for an electrostimulation therapy, an electrostimulation electrode configuration that includes an electrostimulation electrode corresponding to the different second location and precludes an electrostimulation electrode corresponding to the first location when the first depolarization fiducial occurs earlier in the cardiac cycle than the second depolarization fiducial; and wherein the controller is further configured to indicate, for an electrostimulation therapy, an electrostimulation electrode configuration that includes an electrostimulation electrode corresponding to the first location and precludes an electrostimulation electrode corresponding to the different second location when the second depolarization fiducial occurs earlier in the cardiac cycle than the first depolarization fiducial.
