Abstract
Methods and devices for combining multiple signals from multiple sensing vectors for use in wearable or implantable cardiac devices. A preferred sensing configuration may be selected at a given point in time, for example under clinical conditions. Signal quality for the preferred sensing configuration is then monitored, and if the signal quality degrades under selected conditions, re-analysis may be performed to select a different sensing vector configuration for at least temporary use. If signal quality increases for the preferred sensing configuration, temporary use of the different sensing vector configuration may cease and reversion to the preferred sensing configuration takes place if certain conditions are met. The conditions for reversion may depend in part of a history of sensing signal quality for the preferred sensing configuration.
