Abstract:
1. A method of adjusting an implantable resynchronization therapy device for adaptation to the needs of an individual patient, the method comprising: measuring a plurality of physiologic parameters of a cardiomyopathy patient at least partially via an implantable device; obtaining data indicative of corresponding cardiac anatomical dimensions for a matched group of at least one eufunctional patient; comparing the plurality of measured physiologic parameters of the cardiomyopathy patient with data indicative of corresponding cardiac anatomical dimensions for a matched group of at least one eufunctional patient, the data being stored by the implantable device; and dynamically adjusting resynchronization therapy delivery by the device such that the plurality of physiologic parameters of the cardiomyopathy patient are brought into closer conformance with those of the matched group of at least one eufunctional patient.
