Abstract

A medical system is configured to deliver an implantable medical device to a targeted implant site. The system may include a processor configured to receive a cardiac electrical signal and determine a feature of the cardiac electrical signal. The processor may be configured to determine a position of the delivery tool based on at least one feature of the cardiac electrical signal. The processor may detect a deployment position of the delivery tool in response to the cardiac electrical signal feature meeting criteria for detecting the deployment position.
