Abstract

Methods and systems in which a first medical device provides patient status details to a second medical device. Patient status details may include one or more of patient posture and/or patient activity level, or other indications of patient status. The second medical device, in response to information about patient status and changes in patient status, uses a sensing configuration management function to respond to and accommodate the change in patient status. In an example, a first medical device monitors patient posture and communicates information related to patient posture to a second medical device, which then tailors sensing configurations to the patient posture.
