Abstract
Systems, devices disclosed provide example methods comprising determining that a triggering event has occurred based on statuses for a set of physiological parameters associated with the patient, the physiological parameters indicative of the patient engaging in a patient initiated physical activity, generating a trigger output signal in response to the determination that the triggering event has occurred, wirelessly transmitting the trigger output signal to a pressure sensing device implanted in a vessel of the patient, triggering, based on receiving the trigger output signal, the pressure sensing device to sense a cardiovascular pressure of the patient; and transmitting, by the pressure sensing device, a wireless signal comprising data corresponding to the sensed cardiovascular pressure of the patient.
