ABSTRACT:
Methods and devices for cutaneous testing of a patient for the purpose of implanting and/or placing electrodes for electrical cardiac stimulation. In an example, a cutaneous electrode system is placed and used to observe cardiac signal sensing and/or simulate cardiac stimulation. The method may include identifying locations for improved sensing or simulation, and implanting a device or system such that implanted electrodes are placed to correspond to cutaneously identified locations.
