A heart stimulator for multi-site stimulation of the heart of a patient has a pulse generator and a measuring device for measuring a physiological cardiac parameter and delivering a corresponding output signal to a control unit for controlling time intervals between pulses delivered to different stimulation sites in the heart dependent on the output signal according to a predetermined criterion. The measuring device has a ring-shaped electrode sized to fit within a blood vessel to measure perfusion blood flow of the patient's heart, a counter-electrode adapted to contact the blood, and a measuring unit connected to the ring-shaped electrode and to the counter-electrode to measure voltage or current between those electrodes to determine the perfusion blood flow in the vessel, as the physiological parameter.
