Abstract: Systems and methods for cardiac pacing during a procedure are disclosed and may include an external pulse generator (EPG) for connecting to a lead. A remote-control module (RCM) wirelessly connected to the EPG may include user inputs to control the EPG. A central processing unit (CPU) with a memory unit for storing code and a processor for executing the code may be included where the CPU is connected to the EPG and RCM. The code may control the EPG in response to user input from the RCM. The CPU may be disposed in the EPG or the RCM, or an interface module (IM) configured to communicate between an otherwise conventional EPG and the RCM. The executable code may perform a continuity test (CT) routine, a capture check (CC) routine, rapid pacing (RP) routine, and/or a back-up pacing (BP) routine, in response to user input from the RCM.

Abstract: Systems and method for ambulatory cardiac pacing are provided. A method may include providing an implantable medical device and a medical lead and inserting the medical lead into a vein of a patient and securing the holder adjacent to an insertion site of the medical lead. The method may include selecting a pacing algorithm from among a first pacing algorithm configured to provide intermittent pacing support and a second pacing algorithm configured to provide continuous pacing support, for execution by the implantable medical device.
