ABSTRACT:
A clinical programming system is disclosed for use with an implanted cardiac pacemaker to automatically determine the minimum pacing energy which is necessary to evoke an atrial depolarization. The system utilizes a series of pacing pulses of progressively decreasing energies to stimulate the atrium and detects following R-waves. The absence of an R-wave indicates the loss of atrial capture.
