Methods and systems for optimizing exercise compliance diagnostic parameters
First Claim
1. A system comprising:
- a patient-associated medical device operative to detect patient activity based on a programmable activity threshold, to determine the duration of detected activity, and to output data indicative of the duration; and
a processor operative to;
receive first duration data from the medical device indicative of first duration measurements for each of a first activity session and a second activity session;
receive second duration data indicative of second duration measurements for each of the first activity session and the second activity session, the second duration measurements based on actual start and stop of the activity sessions; and
suggest an adjustment of the activity threshold based on at least one of correspondence between the first duration measurement and the second duration measurement of the first activity session, and correspondence between the first duration measurement and the second duration measurement of the second activity session.

Abstract
A medical device detects certain patient activity based on a programmable activity threshold and determines the duration of detected activity. The activity threshold may be optimized by obtaining first and second duration measurements for at least one of a first activity session and second activity session. The first duration measurement is based on the activity threshold, while the second duration measurement is based on actual start and stop of the activity session. An adjustment of the activity threshold is suggested based on a correspondence between the first duration measurement and the second duration measurement of the first activity session, or a correspondence between the first duration measurement and the second duration measurement of the second activity session. One of the first and second activities is non-significant activity expected to be undetected by the device, while the other of the two activities is low-level activity expected to be detected by the device.
