Abstract:
This disclosure is directed to devices, systems, and techniques for monitoring a patient condition. In some examples, a medical device system includes a medical device comprising a set of sensors. Additionally, the medical device system includes processing circuitry configured to identify, based on at least one signal of the set of signals, a time of an event corresponding to the patient and set a time window based on the time of the event. Additionally, the processing circuitry is configured to save, to a fall risk database in a memory, a set of data including one or more signals of the set of signals so that the fall risk database may be analyzed in order to determine a fall risk score corresponding to the patient, wherein the set of data corresponds to the time window.
