摘要:
Systems and methods for improving hemodynamic data interpretation by accounting for the effects of patient posture is disclosed. In certain embodiments, a posture signal is acquired and used to categorize hemodynamic data according to posture to facilitate distinguishing posture-related changes in acquired hemodynamic data from those due to pathophysiologic changes. Posture information may be used to normalize data acquired in various postures to facilitate interpretation of such data. Baseline measurements of hemodynamic data acquired in various postures may also be used to subsequently detect changes in patient posture without the need for an implanted posture sensor.
