Abstract
Devices and methods for improving device therapy such as cardiac resynchronization therapy by determining a value for a device parameter are described. An ambulatory medical device (AMD) can include a sensor circuit to sense a physiological signal and generate two or more signal metrics, and detect an event of worsening cardiac condition using the two or more signal metrics. In response to the detection of worsening cardiac condition, the AMD can determine, for a stimulator, a value of at least one stimulation parameter based on temporal responses of two or more signal metrics. The temporal responses include near-term and long-term responses to the stimulation. The AMD can program the stimulator with the determined parameter value, and generate stimulation according to the determined parameter value to stimulate target tissue.
