Abstract:
1. An apparatus comprising: an implantable cardiac function management device including a programmable controller, the programmable controller configured to include at least first and second user-specifiable therapy control parameter sets, wherein each of the first and second therapy control parameter sets include: wherein the first therapy control parameter set operates during at least a first time duration and the second therapy control parameter set operates during at least a second time duration, and wherein the device is configured to monitor a physiological measure in response to the first therapy control parameter set and compare the physiological measure with a target value for the physiological measure, the device being configured to modify the second therapy control parameter set, prior to the device implementing the second therapy control parameter set, based upon: wherein the controller is configured to concurrently vary multiple therapy control parameters and determine an impact of a particular individual therapy control parameter on the resulting monitored physiological measure.
