1. A method of obtaining synchronized physiologic data, the method comprising:
- sensing physiologic data with a plurality of implantable physiologic measurement devices;
detecting an event at one of the physiologic measurement devices based upon physiologic data sensed by that device; and
wirelessly communicating with another one of the implantable physiologic measurement devices to trigger synchronized physiologic data capture.

Abstract
A physiological monitoring or therapy delivery system includes autonomous, wirelessly linked, implantable devices located at different areas to sense physiologic signals and deliver therapy. At least one of the implantable devices can trigger synchronized action (e.g. data capture or therapy delivery) by other implantable devices via a telemetry link.

3. A method comprising:
-
sensing a physiologic parameter of a patient at a first location with a first implantable medical device; wirelessly transmitting a trigger signal from the first implantable medical device; receiving the trigger signal at a second implantable medical device; and performing a time synchronized action at the second implantable medical device in response to the trigger signal. - View Dependent Claims (4, 5, 6, 7, 8)
