ABSTRACT:
An implantable cardiac stimulation device is configured to measure selected ventricular contraction parameters and apply stimulation therapy based on an analysis of the ventricular contraction parameters. The ventricular contraction parameters may include impedance values that correspond to the volume of fluid in the right ventricle and the left ventricle. The ventricular contraction parameters may include motion values that correspond to heart sounds/motion in the right ventricle and the left ventricle. The ventricular contraction parameters can be used to form a ventricular parameter loop associated with one or more cardiac cycles. The total area within the resulting loop should be maintained below a threshold value through the application of applicable stimulation therapy and/or further physician assistance.
