Abstract
Systems are provided for detecting potential pacemaker lack of capture in surface electrocardiogram (ECG) signals. In one example, a system includes a plurality of electrodes configured to measure electrical potential generated at a skin of a patient, an electrode monitor configured to generate an ECG signal from the electric potential, an interface, a memory storing instructions, and at least one processor configured to execute the instructions to: obtain a baseline ECG signal of the patient, obtain a current ECG signal of the patient from the electrode monitor, determine, based on the baseline ECG signal and/or the current ECG signal, that the patient has an electronic implant carrying out biventricular pacing, compare, based on the determination, the baseline ECG signal to the current ECG signal of the patient, and indicate, through the interface, a degradation condition of the electronic implant based on the comparing and the determination.
