    摘要: One embodiment of the present invention relates to a system for deriving physiologic measurement values that are relative to ambient conditions. In one embodiment, the system comprises an implantable medical device (“IMD”), an external computing device, and a backend computing system. The IMD determines an absolute physiologic parameter value within a patient's body, and communicates the absolute physiologic parameter value outside the patient's body, for example, to the external computing device. Further, the external computing device receives the absolute physiologic parameter from the IMD and communicates it to the backend computing system. The backend computing system receives the absolute physiologic parameter value and obtains an ambient condition value outside the body that can affect the absolute physiologic parameter value. The backend computing system then calculates a relative physiologic parameter value from the ambient condition value and the absolute physiologic parameter value, and in some embodiments, stores the relative physiologic parameter value in a storage location, such as a memory or database.

    摘要: An apparatus and method is presented for an implanted sound sensor wirelessly communicating with an implantable medical device, or with an external monitoring device. The second sensor may be located inside a blood vessel anchored by an expandable stent like device, and may be drug coated. The sound sensor may be a solid-state microphone having a unidirectional characteristic and may be aimed at a selected portion of the heart, lung, or other location. There may be a network of sound sensors forming a local area network with the implantable medical device. The information from the sound sensor may be analyzed, filtered, transformed, compared to a standard and stored in the implantable device, or it may be passed on to an external location. The results of the analysis may be use to initiate a closed-loop treatment by the implantable medical device, such as cardiac pacing or defibrillation.

    摘要: An implantable medical device (IMD) is adapted for detecting acoustic chest sounds. The IMD includes a pulse generator having a compartment, the compartment defining an isolated cavity bounded by a back wall. A diaphragm is disposed over and encloses the cavity. An acoustic sensor adapted to sense chest sounds and generate a signal is disposed between the diaphragm and the back wall. The IMD also includes a control circuit disposed within the pulse generator. The circuit is operatively coupled to the acoustic sensor and is adapted to receive the signal.
