Abstract

A method and system for tracking quality of life in a patient with angina includes obtaining activity data and cardiac data, determining a level of physical activity of the patient and identifying an ischemic episode based on the cardiac data obtained during the physical activity. The method also provides for recording an activity level at the time the ischemic episode occurs. Furthermore, the method also provides for presenting activity level trends related to activity levels at the onset of ischemia to a user.
