Abstract
Systems and methods are provided for detecting the orientation and/or movement of a patient having an implantable cardiac stimulation device and evaluating whether a change in the patient's cardiac activity can be at least in part due to a change in the patient's orientation. In one particular embodiment, signals from an orientation sensor and/or a pressure sensor are evaluated to determine static positional orientation of the patient and determine based on the static orientation whether the patient's cardiac activity is abnormal.
