1. A method for determining pacing parameters associated with peak cardiac performance comprising the steps of:

  • (a) determining a cardiac performance value for each of a plurality of sets of pacing parameters, wherein the plurality of sets comprises more than two sets of pacing parameters;

    (b) selecting at least two sets of pacing parameters from the plurality of sets of pacing parameters based on the cardiac performance values determined at step (a);

    (c) creating an updated plurality of sets of pacing parameters based on the at least two sets of pacing parameters selected at step (b); and

    (d) repeating steps (a) through (c), wherein each time steps (a) and (b) are repeated the updated plurality of sets of pacing parameters most recently created at step (c) are used.
