Abstract
Embodiments include medical device systems, medical devices, including accelerometers and chemical sensors, and methods of using the same to determine the posture of a patient. In an embodiment, a medical device system herein includes an accelerometer configured to generate a signal reflecting a position of a patient, a chemical sensor configured to generate a signal reflecting physiological analyte data of the patient and a controller in electrical communication with the accelerometer and the chemical sensor. The controller can be configured to determine a posture of the patient using the position signal generated by the accelerometer and the signal generated by the chemical sensor. Other embodiments are also included herein.
