CHRONIC OBSTRUCTIVE PULMONARY DISEASE MONITORING

An example device includes memory configured to store a measure of COPD severity of a patient and processing circuitry communicatively coupled to the memory. The processing circuitry is configured to receive an electromyogram (EMG) of the patient, receive one or more signals indicative of respiration rate of the patient, and receive one or more signals indicative of tidal volume of the patient. The processing circuitry is configured to determine, based on the respiration rate of the patient and the tidal volume of the patient, a minute ventilation of the patient. The processing circuitry is configured to determine, based on the minute ventilation of the patient and the EMG of the patient, the measure of COPD severity of the patient, and generate an indication for output that is based at least in part on the measure of COPD severity of the patient.
