ABSTRACT:
An exemplary device includes control logic to determine a paced atrial activation time using a predictive model and an intrinsic atrial activation time and to determine an atrioventricular delay based at least in part on the paced atrial activation time. Such a device may be an implantable device configured to deliver cardiac therapy that uses atrial pacing and ventricular pacing. Such a device may be a programmer configured to program an implantable device configured to deliver cardiac therapy that uses atrial pacing and ventricular pacing. Various other exemplary technologies are also disclosed.
