ABSTRACT:
An implantable cardiac stimulation device for determining whether a patient has asymptomatic diabetes. A pulse generator delivers pacing pulses to the heart. A sensing circuit senses internal cardiac signals. A processor is programmed to measure at least one characteristic of the cardiac signals, which are processed to determine whether the patient has asymptomatic diabetes. Relative changes in the measured characteristics over time are indicative of whether the patient has asymptomatic diabetes. The measured characteristics may include, alone or in combination, T-wave morphology, corrected QT internal, QT dispersion and signal averaged QRS width.
