ABSTRACT:
A cardiac pacing system includes circuitry for verification of capture having an indifferent electrode mounted on the pacemaker connector top. The cardiac pacing system may use one or two bipolar or unipolar leads. Capture is sensed between the indifferent electrode and one of the electrodes on the lead or leads. Either electrode on the lead or leads can be used as the other electrode forming a sensing pair with the indifferent electrode. The electrode is located in the plastic connector top portion of the implanted pacemaker, and may be disposed at a side of the pacemaker, when implanted, facing the interior of the patient, or facing the exterior of the patient.
