Abstract
Cardiac lead implantation systems, devices, and methods for lead implantation are disclosed. An illustrative cardiac lead implantation system comprises a mapping guidewire including one or more electrodes configured for sensing cardiac electrical activity, a signal analyzer including an analysis module configured for analyzing an electrocardiogram signal sensed by the mapping guidewire, and a user interface configured for monitoring one or more hemodynamic parameters within the body. The sensed electrical activity signal can be used by the analysis module to compute a timing interval associated with ventricular depolarization.
