Classification: CPC A  G | IPC A  G

Claim 12:
13. A method of predicting a disease status of a patient, the method comprising:
receiving physiological information of the patient from a physiologic sensor of an ambulatory medical device implanted in or associated with the patient;
determining a risk indication associated with the disease status using the received physiological information;
generating, via a detector circuit, a first detection indication using a first combination of signal metrics associated with the received physiological information and respective weight factors;
generating a second detection indication using a second combination of signal metrics associated with the received physiological information and respective weight factors,
the signal metrics in the second combination being more sensitive to the disease status than the signal metrics in the first combination,
wherein the first and second combinations of signal metrics and respective weight factors are different from each other and based at least in part on the determined risk indication;
generating, via the detector circuit, a composite prediction of the disease status using an information fusion model that takes as input the first detection indication, the second detection indication, and the risk indication;
and via an output circuit, generating an alert about the composite prediction of the disease status to a user or a patient management process;
where the alert includes a display of the composite prediction and one or more of: the first combination of signal metrics, the second combination of signal metrics, the first detection indication, and the second detection indication.
