1. A method for use with an implantable medical device capable of sensing electrical signals along a plurality of sensing channels connected to a selectable sensing vector, the method comprising:

  • sensing electrical signals within the patient using a primary sensing vector connected to a primary sensing channel for use in controlling the delivery of therapy;

    sensing additional electrical signals within the patient using an alternate sensing vector connected to an alternate sensing channel; and

    while continuing to sense signals using the primary sensing vector, assessing whether the alternate sensing vector provides improved sensing over the primary sensing vector and, if so, switching the primary sensing channel from the primary sensing vector to the alternate sensing vector for sensing further electrical signals for use in controlling further therapy.
