摘要： A test system and method for cardiovascular autonomic neuropathy that incorporates an implanted medical device. One aspect of the invention relates to a system for performing cardiovascular autonomic neuropathy (CAN) testing in a diabetic patient having an implantable medical device (IMD) that includes a plurality of implantable physiological sensors and that is configured to transmit a wireless signal corresponding to a sensed physiological activity and to receive wireless signals. The system further includes one or more non-implantable physiological sensors, where the non-implantable physiological sensors are each configured to transmit a signal corresponding to a sensed physiological parameter, and a monitor device having a patient interface. The monitor device is configured to interface with a patient, including directing the patient to answer health related questions and use one or more of the non-implantable physiological sensors. The monitor device is also configured to receive signals, including signals from the IMD and the non-implantable physiological sensors. The system is configured to provide an indication of the presence or progression of CAN.
