Abstract

A method and apparatus is disclosed for automatically setting the pacing parameters utilized by an implantable cardiac device in delivering cardiac resynchronization therapy. The selection of the pacing parameters is based at least in part upon measurements of intrinsic cardiac conduction parameters. Among the pacing parameters which may be selected in this way is the atrio-ventricular delay interval used in atrial-tracking and AV sequential pacing modes.
