Abstract

See full text

A system and method for assessing pulmonary performance through transthoracic impedance monitoring is described. Transthoracic impedance measures are directly collected through an implantable medical device. The transthoracic impedance measures are correlated to pulmonary functional measures relative to performance of at least one respiration cycle. The transthoracic impedance measures are grouped into at least one measures set corresponding to one of an inspiratory phase and an expiratory phase. The at least one transthoracic impedance measures set are evaluated to identify a respiratory pattern relative to the inspiratory phase or the expiratory phase to represent pulmonary performance.
