Abstract
Stimulation energy can be provided to a His-bundle to activate natural cardiac contraction mechanisms. Interval information can be used to describe a cardiac response to His-bundle stimulation, and the interval information can provide cardiac stimulation diagnostic information. For example, interval information can be used to discriminate between intrinsic conduction cardiac contractions and contractions responsive to His-bundle pacing.
