1. An integrated cardiorenal disease therapy management system, comprising:
- a. a renal therapy device including at least one of an external dialysis device or an external ultrafiltration device configured to provide renal therapy to a subject;
b. an implantable cardiac rhythm management device including;
a sensor for measuring data representative of a patient physiological parameter; and
a cardiac rhythm management therapy circuit configured to provide cardiac rhythm management therapy to the subject; and
c. a control system coupled to the renal therapy device and configured to receive the data representative of the patient physiological parameter, wherein the control system directs therapy provided by the renal therapy device using information from the data representative of the patient physiological parameter received from the implantable cardiac rhythm management device when the implantable cardiac rhythm management device has been implanted in the subject.
