Abstract
Systems and methods for selecting, positioning, and controlling cardiac resynchronization therapy (CRT) electrodes are disclosed. According to an aspect, a CRT system includes one or more electrodes configured to be positioned on or in proximity to a subject's heart for receiving electrical signals carrying EGM data. The system also includes a CRT device operatively connected to the electrode(s). The CRT device is configured to receive the electrical signals from the electrode(s) when the one or more electrodes are positioned in a first arrangement with respect to the subject's heart. Further, the CRT device is configured to determine a second arrangement of the electrode(s) with respect to the subject's heart based on the carried EGM data. The CRT device is configured to present the second arrangement of the electrode(s).
