    摘要: Optimizing cardiac preload based on measured pulmonary artery pressure involves varying, for each repetition of an acute burst protocol, a parameter of pacing applied to a patient's heart during the acute burst protocol. Pulmonary artery pressure is measured during the repetitions of the acute burst protocol. The length of the repetitions is chosen so that the patient's baroreflex system does not adjust to the varied parameter of pacing during the repetitions of the acute burst protocol. An optimum ventricular preload is determined based on the measured pulmonary artery pressure. Pacing therapy is provided using a value of the parameter that is selected based on the determination of optimum ventricular preload.

    摘要: An apnea classification system provides for apnea monitoring and differentiation based on several sleep apnea related parameters for diagnostic and therapeutic purposes. Monitoring of such sleep apnea related parameters allows the apnea classification system to differentiate among the different types of apnea. This information may then be used to determine the best method of therapy, or adjust current therapy parameters to more effectively treat a subject.

    摘要: Systems and methods provide for sensing, during an event of tachycardia, hemodynamic signals concurrently from at least two spatially separated locations within a patient, and quantifying a spatial relationship between the hemodynamic signals. Hemodynamic stability or state of the patient during the tachycardia event is determine based at least in part on the quantified spatial relationship. One or more anti-tachycardia therapies to treat the tachycardia may be selected based at least in part on the determined stability or state of patient hemodynamics, and the selected one or more anti-tachycardia therapies may be delivered to treat the tachycardia. The hemodynamic signals may comprise at least two, or a mixed combination, of cardiac impedance signals, cardiac chamber pressure signals, arterial pressure signals, heart sounds; and acceleration signals.

    摘要: A system and method for remotely evaluating patient compliance status is presented. Compliance to a course of treatment is periodically checked through qualitative inquiry of a patient under remote management. Physiometry of the patient, that indicates emotional state, is remotely monitored contemporaneously with the qualitative state. Patient status is evaluated, including at least one of corroborating the compliance and identifying an emotional imbalance, based upon the indicated emotional state of the patient.

    摘要: This document discusses, among other things, an apparatus and method for implantably acquiring a wideband signal. The apparatus comprises an implantable device including at least one physiological sensor configured to sense physiological signals having a low frequency component and a high frequency component. The implantable device includes a sampling circuit configured to sample at a sampling rate that is lower in frequency than twice the highest frequency of the second frequency component of the physiological signal. The implantable or external signal postprocessing module can be communicatively coupled to the sampling circuit to receive the set of samples, and configured to process the set of samples to use an information of interest intentionally aliased from the second frequency component of the physiological signal.

    摘要: Physiological data, such as thoracic impedance data, can be obtained over a first time window to establish a baseline, or can be used to form one or more data clusters. Additional physiological data, such as thoracic impedance test data acquired over a later time window, can be obtained and compared to the baseline or data clusters to determine an indication of worsening heart failure. In an example, a quantitative attribute of one or more data clusters can be monitored and used to provide an indication of worsening heart failure. A posture discrimination metric can be obtained, such as using the physiological data obtained over the first time window. The additional physiological data, such as can be obtained over a second time window, can be compared to the posture discrimination metric to provide a patient posture status.
