Abstract:
1. A method for configuring a medical device for use with a multipolar electrode system, the method comprising: providing to a user an interactive representation of a first set of cardiac electrostimulation vectors, the interactive representation including display portions corresponding to at least first and second electrostimulation vectors that are available for user-selection for use in an electrostimulation parameter test, wherein each of the at least first and second electrostimulation vectors represents a different electric field between at least two electrodes in the multipolar electrode system; receiving a first selection of the first electrostimulation vector from among the first set of cardiac elecuostimulation vectors, wherein the first electrostimulation vector represents a first electric field between at least first and second electrodes; providing a visual indication of the first selection of the first electrostimulation vector using the display portion of the interactive representation corresponding to the selected first electrostimulation vector; and interactively using the first selection of the first electrostimulation vector, wherein interactively using the first selection comprises displaying, using the interactive representation, an electrostimulation configuration score for the first electrostimulation vector, the electrostimulation configuration score based on multiple device-measured electrostimulation parameter test results associated with the first electrostimulation vector, and the electrostimulation configuration score indicative of a relative electrostimulation vector preference, the interactively using the first selection further including displaying the electrostimulation configuration score in the same display portion of the interactive representation corresponding to the first elecuostimulation vector and in visual correspondence with the displayed first electrostimulation vector.
