Abstract
An electromedical implant having a far-field electrocardiogram detection unit connected or connectable to at least two implantable electrodes, at least one electrode of which is to be placed in the right atrium or right ventricle and is designed to record a far-field electrocardiogram via the terminal for the electrode to be placed in the right atrium or the right ventricle and one other electrode. The far-field electrocardiogram detection unit is connected to a far-field electrocardiogram evaluation unit, which is configured to detect signal features of the far-field electrocardiogram associated with an excitation or contraction of the left atrium and/or the left ventricle of the heart in a far-field electrocardiogram recorded by the far-field electrocardiogram detection unit.
