    Abstract: A processor circuit can be configured to obtain a first multidimensional vector. The first multidimensional vector can include dimensions corresponding to respective first conductivity characteristics obtained from different implantable electrode configurations associated with a subject. The processor circuit can also be configured to obtain a second multidimensional vector or vector space. The second multidimensional vector or vector space can include dimensions corresponding to respective second conductivity characteristics obtained from such different electrode configurations associated with the same or a different subject. The processor circuit can also provide a physiological status indicator that can be obtained at least in part by performing a vector comparison of the first multidimensional vector to the second multidimensional vector space or vector.

    Abstract: An ambulatory medical device includes a multi-axis posture sensor and processing circuitry. The multi-axis posture sensor is configured to provide an electrical posture sensor output representative of alignment of respective first, second, and third non-parallel axes of the ambulatory medical device with the gravitational field of the earth. The processing circuitry is configured to determine that the subject avoids lying on their left side using the posture sensor output, and compute a metric predictive of one or both of orthopnea and trepopnea in response to determining that the subject avoids lying on their left side.

    Abstract: Systems and methods for electrically stimulating a patient's cardiac conduction system at selected locations based on heart sounds are disclosed. A medical-device system includes a data receiver to receive heart sound information sensed from a patient, an electrostimulation circuit to deliver electrostimulation to the cardiac conduction system, and a controller circuit to generate, from the heart sound information sensed in response to the electrostimulation being delivered respectively to two or more candidate locations at or near the cardiac conduction system, heart sound metrics respectively for the two or more candidate locations. Based on the heart sound metrics, the controller circuit selects at least one of the candidate locations as a pacing location for subsequent electrostimulation. Electrostimulation can be delivered to the selected pacing location to restore cardiac synchrony.

    Abstract: Systems and methods for assessing a cardiac arrhythmia risk of a patient, such as a risk for developing atrial fibrillation, are disclosed. An exemplary medical-device system includes an arrhythmia predictor circuit configured to receive physiologic information of a patient, and in an absence of atrial tachyarrhythmia in the patient, determine a risk of the patient developing future atrial tachyarrhythmia using the physiologic information. In accordance with the arrhythmia risk indication, the system can generate an alert, or initiate more aggressive monitoring of a patient identified as having a high atrial tachyarrhythmia risk.
