Abstract
A system for predicting heart failure hospitalization, comprises a processing device configured to process data derived from signals sensed by an implantable medical device, the signals being indicative of cardiac activity, to obtain a heart failure prediction index. The processing device is configured to process a multiplicity of variables relating to different cardiac characteristics to obtain a multiplicity of processed variables, and to combine the processed variables using a mathematical model to compute the heart failure prediction index.
