Claim One:
1. A medical therapy system for treatment of the heart with electrical pulses, comprising: at least one input side sensor; at least one output side therapy applicator; a data memory for storing patient, system condition and system configuration data; and at least one linking/processing stage for processing indicator and predictor input signals connected between the at least one input-side sensor and the at least one output-side therapy applicator and in signal communication with the data memory; wherein time-dependent sensor input signals are received by the at least one linking/processing stage, and wherein the system has the capability to ascertain, from the sensor input signals and the data stored in the data memory, a control signal for controlling the operation of the therapy applicator, an indicator signal which represents a measurement of either a therapy-liable event or a therapy outcome, and a predictor signal which represents a probability of either a future therapy-liable event or a future therapy outcome, and wherein a system output signal is ascertained, the system output signal being selected from the group consisting of: the control signal, the indicator signal, and the predictor signal.
