ABSTRACT:
An implantable monitor for collecting and storing for later telemetric readout physiologic data relating to cardiopulmonary performance. The monitor device includes an accelerometer and associated signal processing circuitry for analyzing the accelerometer output signal and deriving therefrom activity, respiratory, pulse pressure and heart sound information helpful in assessing the efficacy of therapy being rendered to the patient.
