Abstract: The present disclosure relates generally to pacing of cardiac tissue, and more particularly to adjusting delivery of His bundle or bundle branch pacing in a cardiac pacing system to achieve synchronized ventricular activation. Bundle pacing may be delivered in response to determining whether the QRS parameter or activation interval is greater than a threshold. A set of AV delays may be generated, and an optimal AV delay may be selected from the stored set of AV delays. His-bundle or bundle-branch pacing may be selectively delivered based on RV or LV activation time. Pacing may also be adjusted based on dyssynchrony detected or the type of bundle branch block pattern detected.
