Abstract
A medical device system and method that includes accelerometer circuitry configured to generate at least one signal, a memory, and processing circuitry coupled to the accelerometer circuitry and the memory. The processing circuitry is configured to monitor a patient for a Sit-To-Stand transition based upon the at least one signal, detect the Sit-to-Stand transition, determine if the patient has been inactive for a predetermined period of time prior to the Sit-to-Stand transition, and if the patient has been inactive for at least the predetermined period of time prior to the Sit-to-Stand transition, determine a body stability score of the patient.
