<p>A method and system is implemented in an implantable medical device (IMD) and provides for detection of multiple physiologic parameters in response to a single source current event. A high frequency source current signal is propagated through body tissues in the thorax, including the heart. The source current signal has a frequency greater than a frequency of a pacing current signal producible by the IMD. In response to the source current signal, a first voltage is detected between two portions of a first region of the heart substantially concurrently with sensing a second voltage between one of the IMD housing and a header/can electrode and one of the two portions of the first region of the heart. The first voltage is associated with a cardiac function and the second voltage is indicative of a respiratory function.</p> |
