Abstract

Gesture-informed patient management systems and related medical devices and operating methods are provided. A method of operating a medical device capable of influencing a physiological condition of a patient involves obtaining first sensor measurement data from a sensing arrangement associated with a first location on a body of the patient and capable of detecting physical movement by the patient, obtaining second sensor measurement data from a second sensing arrangement having a second location different from the first location, predicting an occurrence of an event based at least in part on the first sensor measurement data in a manner that is influenced by the second sensor measurement data, resulting in a predicted occurrence of the event, and automatically configuring operation of the medical device to influence the physiological condition of the patient in a manner that is influenced by the predicted occurrence of the event.
