ABSTRACT:
An implantable cardiac device and method provides for monitoring a progression or regression in heart disease during an extended time period. A sensor generates an electrogram signal representing electrical activity of a patient's heart. From the generated electrogram signal, a processor determines morphology measurements wherein the morphology measurements indicate a progression or regression in the heart disease. The morphology measurements are stored in a memory during the extended period of time. A telemetry circuit transmits the stored morphology measurements to an external receiver for retrieval or display. The morphology measurements may be of electrogram intrinsic activity or evoked response activity characteristics.
