Abstract
Methods, systems, and computer program products differentiate between arrhythmic events having different origins. An implantable medical device detects the arrhythmic events. At least one method involves receiving electrograms representing arrhythmic events and sorting the arrhythmic events into groups based on similarities between the electrograms and/or differences between the electrograms. The method also involves identifying an exemplary arrhythmic event from each group to represent the group from which the exemplary arrhythmic event is identified and distinguishing each exemplary arrhythmic event via an interface display.
