Zusammenfassung:A system comprises a memory, a plurality of electrodes, sensing circuitry, and processing circuitry. The sensing circuitry configured to determine one or more tissue impedance values via the electrodes, wherein the tissue impedance values vary as a function of ejection fraction of a heart of a patient. The processing circuitry configured to determine, at least based on the one or more tissue impedance values, a stroke metric indicative of a stroke status of the patient, and store the stroke metric in a memory.
