Abstract
Methods, devices and program products are provided for controlling a left univentricular (LUV) pacing therapy using an implantable medical device. Electrodes are configured to be located proximate to an atrial (A) site, left ventricular (LV) site and right ventricular (RV) site of the heart. A conduction different Δ is determined based on i) an atrial-ventricular conduction delay (AR) between the A site and the RV site, and ii) an atrial-ventricular conduction delay (AR) between the A site and the LV site. A correction term ε is based on intrinsic inter-ventricular conduction delay (IVCD) between the LV and RV. An LV atrial-ventricular pacing (AV) delay is set based on the conduction difference Δ, a pacing latency PL and the correction term ε and manages the LUV pacing therapy based on the AVdelay, wherein the LUV pacing therapy lacks pacing in the RV.
