Abstract
An ischemia detector has a patient workload sensor and a patient breathing sensor which emits a signal representing sensed workload, and a patient breathing sensor which emits a signal representing sensed breathing activity of a patient. These signals are supplied to a detector unit which identifies a state of ischemia upon an occurrence of a predetermined relation between the sensed workload and the sensed breathing activity. This predetermined relation is a sensed low workload and a simultaneously sensed high breathing activity.
