Abstract
A cardiovascular analysis system and method includes an implantable medical device with a sensor positioned to sense a hemodynamic pressure over time. The implantable medical device generates hemodynamic pressure waveform data based upon the hemodynamic pressure sensed. A processor analyzes the hemodynamic waveform data to provide an indication of cardiovascular health based upon prominent peaks in the hemodynamic waveform data.
