Abstract

Processing circuitry of a system configured to determine a patient state based on sensed signals including posture and activity information and control delivery of electrical stimulation therapy to the patient via electrodes implanted proximal to target tissue of the patient. The sensed signals also include impedance measurement, and other bioelectrical signals, where sensing is interleaved with the electrical stimulation therapy. Responsive to determining the patient state, select an action, wherein the selected action comprises one or more of: store collected information, upload the collected information to an external computing device, and output an electronic signal comprising an alert.
