Claim One:
1. A system, comprising: an artificial neural network comprising a first portion and a second portion; an implantable cardiac device including: means for applying corrective medical therapies to a patient; means for collecting at least two different types of health-related data values from the patient; means for combining the at least two different types of health-related data values into a set of one or more health indications; and the first portion of the artificial neural network, the first portion adapted to provide real time network operation and to adapt and determine applied corrective medical therapies based on the set of health indications; and an external data processing apparatus including: the second portion of the artificial neural network, the second portion adapted to train and validate the operation of the neural network and to determine a set of operating coefficients based on the collected data values, wherein the cardiac device and data processing apparatus are adapted to communicate to pass the collected patient data values from the device to the apparatus, and are further adapted to communicate to pass the set of operating coefficients from the apparatus to the device, the coefficients used by the artificial neural network when determining the applied corrective medical therapies.
