  • monitoring an output of a sensor, the output of the sensor reflecting a physiological parameter of a patient;

    initially defining an event based on the monitoring of the sensor output, wherein initially defining the event comprises storing an indication of the monitored sensor output within a memory as the defined event;

    monitoring therapy delivered by a medical device while the output of the sensor was monitored during the event to initially define the event;

    generating therapy information based on the monitoring of the therapy while the output of the sensor was monitored during the event to initially define the event;

    associating the therapy information with the defined event within the memory;

    subsequently detecting the defined event by monitoring the output of the sensor and comparing the sensor output to the defined event; and

    automatically providing therapy to the patient via the medical device according to the therapy information associated with the defined event in response to the detection.
