Abstract

An exemplary method generates a map of a pacing parameter, a sensing parameter or one or more other parameters based in part on location information acquired using a localization system configured to locate electrodes in vivo (i.e., within a patient's body). Various examples map capture thresholds, qualification criteria for algorithms, undesirable conditions and sensing capabilities. Various other methods, devices, systems, etc., are also disclosed.
