ABSTRACT:
Systems and methods to optimize atrioventricular delay during sensing or pacing of the atrium and for a plurality of sensed rates or pacing rates. In one example, a paced atrioventricular delay is calculated using a sensed atrioventricular interval and a paced atrioventricular interval. In another example, a plurality of paced atrioventricular delays for different pacing rates can be calculated. In another example embodiment, a plurality of sensed atrioventricular delays for different sensing rates can be calculated. Combinations of the various systems and methods are also possible.
