    摘要: An implantable system for ambulatory monitoring of a high-risk heart failure patient includes a first pressure sensor implantable within an abdomen of the patient for sensing and generating an output representative of a baseline intra-abdominal pressure value of the patient and for chronically sensing and generating an output representative of an intra-abdominal pressure value of the patient at periodic intervals. At least one second implantable sensor is provided for sensing and generating an output representative of a second physiological parameter of the patient. Additionally, the system includes a processor for correlating the output of the first pressure sensor and the second physiologic sensor, and for comparing differences between the baseline intra-abdominal pressure value and subsequent intra-abdominal pressure values. The processor can reside in another implantable device or in an external device/system.

    摘要: Implantable medical devices and techniques are implemented that use bio-impedance to measure aspects of patient physiology. A signal separation method is performed at least in part in an implantable device. The method involves detecting a plurality of impedance signals using a plurality of implantable electrodes coupled to the implantable device. The method further involves separating one or more signals from the plurality of impedance signals using a signal separation technique, such as an algorithm-based separation technique.

    摘要: Methods and devices detect context related to a patient when monitoring a physiological condition of the patient and/or when applying one or more modes of therapy. The context may be a patient context such as posture or an environmental context such as ambient conditions. The context may be used in various ways in relation to the physiological measurement, such as to control when the physiological measurements are made, to appropriately flag physiological measurements, to be recorded in association with the physiological measurements, and/or to correct the physiological measurements based on a reference context. A device such as a beacon transmitter is used in detecting the context and a measurement device such as an implantable cardiovascular device is used to capture the physiological measurements.
