Abstract

A medical device programmer or other external system capable of programming an implantable CRM device includes a wide-QRS detection and alerting system. Upon detection of a wide QRS complex, a wide-QRS indicator produces a visual indication of the detection using one or more presentation devices such as a display screen and a printer to alert a physician or other caregiver.
