Abstract

Template formation methods for use in implantable cardiac rhythm management devices. In an illustrative method, a signal is captured signal an implanted cardiac rhythm management device, and parameters for analysis of the captured signal are then defined. Then, in the example, additional signals can be captured and used to either verify or discard the captured signal defined parameters. The template formation methods provide for creating a robust template to compare with sensed cardiac complexes. Devices and systems configured to perform template formation and verification methods are also shown.
