    Abstract: An apparatus may include a sensing circuit configured to generate a sensed physiological signal representative of thoracic impedance of a subject and a controller circuit. The a controller circuit is electrically coupled to the sensing circuit and includes a measurement circuit that determines a measure of absolute thoracic impedance using the sensed physiological signal, and a risk circuit that quantifies a risk of worsening heart failure (WHF) for the subject using a comparison of the determined measure of absolute thoracic impedance to a specified threshold value of absolute thoracic impedance, and generate an indication of risk of WHF of the subject according to the quantifying of the risk.

    Abstract: Methods, apparatuses and systems are described for determining respiration through impedance measurements using only two electrodes. A drive signal may be applied to a person, using only two electrodes. Using the same electrodes, the fluctuations in the voltage of the drive signal are determined. The voltage fluctuations in the drive signal are the result of impedance variations in the person's thoracic cavity due to respiration. Therefore, the voltage fluctuations may be used to determine a respiration rate of the person. In doing so, the voltage fluctuations may be digitized using a sampling rate that is much less than the frequency of the applied drive signal.
