IMPLANTABLE DEVICE AND METHOD FOR MONITORING VENOUS DIAMETER |
| 摘要 |
An implantable medical device system and associated method receive a signal from an implantable sensor operatively positioned relative to a vein, the signal being responsive to changes in a diameter of the vein. A diameter of the vein is determined in response to the sensor signal and used in estimating central venous pressure (CVP). |

1. A method for use in an implantable medical device, comprising:
receiving a signal from an implantable sensor operatively positioned relative to a vein, the signal being responsive to changes in a diameter of the vein; determining a diameter of the vein in response to the sensor signal; and estimating a central venous pressure (CVP) based upon the vein diameter. |
