Abstract

In some examples, an IMD provides CRT data that indicates an amount of time that CRT was not delivered by the IMD, such as the % CRT. In some examples, a CRT loss diagnosis module apportions the amount of time that CRT was not delivered amongst predetermined reasons for loss of CRT based on the CRT data and sensed cardiac data from the IMD. An external computing device may present a representation of the apportionment to a user, e.g., a clinician. The external computing device may also analyze the apportionment, and recommend programming changes for the delivery of CRT by the IMD based on the analysis.
