Method and system for detecting capture with cancellation of pacing artifact
First Claim
1. A method for detecting fusion/pseudofusion in a cardiac beat, comprising:
- detecting a cardiac signal;
canceling a captured response template from the cardiac signal to form a captured response canceled cardiac signal; and
detecting fusion/pseudofusion using the captured response canceled cardiac signal.

Abstract
Methods and systems for detecting capture using pacing artifact cancellation are described. One or more pacing artifact templates are provided and a cardiac signal is sensed in a cardiac verification window. Each of the pacing artifact templates may characterize the pacing artifact associated with a particular pacing energy level, for example. A particular pacing artifact template is canceled from the cardiac signal. Capture is determined using the pacing artifact canceled cardiac signal. Detection of fusion/pseudofusion beats may be accomplished by comparing a cardiac signal to a captured response template.
