Abstract

See full text

A method for determining an optimal pacing timing control parameter setting is provided for use in an implantable medical device programmed to deliver a pacing pulse in response to the timing control parameter. The method includes storing a user-selected optimization metric, iteratively adjusting the timing control parameter setting, sensing a first signal that varies in response to left ventricular wall acceleration, measuring the user-selected optimization metric in response to the sensed first signal, and determining an optimal timing control parameter value in response to the measured user-selected optimization metric.
