Abstract
An implantable medical device having a prioritized multiplexor sensing circuit used for monitoring the condition or status of a patient. The device includes patient parameter sensors, such as electrodes, that are monitored for indications of significant events. Sensors indicating the presence of significant events may then be monitored more often than the other sensors.
