[0001] Cross References to Related Applications

[0002] This application claims the benefit of U.S. Patent Application Serial No. 14 / 220,733, filed March 20, 2014, and entitled "Non-Invasive Detection of Phrenic Nerve Stimulation," which is incorporated by reference It is hereby incorporated in its entirety. Background technique

[0003] The disclosure herein relates to systems and methods for non-invasive detection of phrenic nerve stimulation during delivery of cardiac pacing therapy. The systems and methods may monitor the patient's electrical activity during cardiac pacing therapy using a plurality of electrodes adjacent tissue of the patient, and may use the monitored electrical activity to determine whether the cardiac pacing therapy is stimulating the phrenic nerve.

[0004] Cardiac pacing electrodes may be used in various systems, devices, and methods for medically treating a patient. More specifically, cardiac pacing electrodes may be positioned adjacent to or in c...
