Abstract
A biatrial and/or biventricular pacing system is used in a diagnostic context. By placing a pacing/sensing lead in three or four chambers of the heart, various conduction sequences can be determined and the originating chamber of various arrhythmias can be identified. This information is stored temporarily in the pacemaker until it is extracted for analysis.
