Systems and methods involve an implantable device configured to perform at least one cardiac-related function, a patient-external respiratory therapy device, and a communication channel configured to facilitate communication between the implantable device and the respiratory therapy device. The implantable and respiratory therapy devices operate cooperatively via the communication channel to provide one or more of patient monitoring, diagnosis, and therapy. The communication channel may be configured to facilitate communication between an external processing system and at least one of the implantable device and the respiratory therapy device. The processing system is communicatively coupled to at least one of the implantable and respiratory therapy devices via the communication channel to provide one or more of patient monitoring, diagnosis, and therapy.
What is claimed is: 1. A system, comprising: an implantable device configured to perform at least one cardiac-related function and including first sensors; a patient-external respiratory therapy device and including second sensors; a processing system external of the implantable and respiratory the
What is claimed is: 1. A system, comprising: an implantable device configured to perform at least one cardiac-related function and including first sensors; a patient-external respiratory therapy device and including second sensors; a processing system external of the implantable and respiratory therapy devices; and a communication channel configured to facilitate communication between the processing system and at least one of the implantable device and the respiratory therapy device, the processing system communicatively coupled to the at least one of the implantable and respiratory therapy devices via the communication channel, the processing system configured to assess sensing characteristics of each of the first and second sensors and to select, based on the assessment of the sensing characteristics, between one and both of the implantable device and the patient-external respiratory therapy device to provide one or more of patient monitoring, diagnosis, and therapy, wherein the sensing characteristics include type, quality, reliability, repeatability, efficiency, availability, accuracy, resolution, dynamic range, specificity, sensitivity or predictive value. 2. The system of claim 1, wherein the communication channel is configured to facilitate communication between the implantable device and the respiratory therapy device. 3. The system of claim 1, wherein the communication channel is configured to facilitate communication between the processing system and one or both of the implantable and respiratory therapy devices and the processing system is configured to facilitate indirect communication between the implantable device and the patient-external device respiratory therapy device. 4. The system of claim 1, wherein the processing system is configured to manage patient-related information and is remotely located with respect to the implantable device and the patient-external device. 5. The system of claim 1, wherein the processing system is configured to coordinate one or more of initiation, modification, and termination of the therapy deliverable by one or both of the implantable and respiratory therapy devices based on interaction between the therapy and another therapy being delivered to the patient. 6. The system of claim 1, wherein the processing system is further configured to assess therapy characteristics of the implantable device and therapy characteristics of the patient-external respiratory device and to select between one and both of the implantable device and the patient-external respiratory therapy device to deliver therapy based on the assessment of the therapy characteristics. 7. The system of claim 6, wherein the one or more therapy characteristics comprises patient comfort and therapy effectiveness and the processing system is configured to coordinate therapy to decrease a level of therapy to increase patient comfort if the processing system determines that therapy effectiveness is sufficient. 8. The system of claim 1, wherein the one or more sensing characteristics comprises accuracy and the processing system is configured to assess accuracy of at least one of the first sensors and the second sensors and to select between one and both of the implantable device and the patient-external respiratory therapy device based on the assessment of accuracy. 9. The system of claim 1, wherein the one or more sensing characteristics comprises a type of sensor and the processing system is configured to assess sensing characteristics by determining the type of sensor of at least one of the first and second sensors and to select between one and both of the implantable device and the patient-external respiratory therapy device based on the type of sensor. 10. The system of claim 1, wherein the processing system is configured to implement one of the implantable device and the patient external respiratory therapy device to provide the patient monitoring and to implement another of the implantable device and the patient-external respiratory therapy device deliver the therapy, wherein the device selected to provide the patient monitoring is different from the device selected to provide the therapy. 11. The system of claim 1, wherein the processing system is configured to detect sleep and to select one or both of the implantable device and the patient-external respiratory therapy device based on the detection of sleep. 12. The system of claim 1, wherein the processing system is configured to determine a type of disordered breathing experienced by the patient and to select one or both of the implantable device and the patient external respiratory therapy device based on the type of disordered breathing. 13. The system of claim 1, wherein the processing system is configured to coordinate the therapy between one and both of the implantable device and the patient-external respiratory therapy device based on device lifetime. 14. The system of claim 1, wherein the processing system is configured to select between one and both of the implantable device and the patient-external respiratory therapy device based on patient use of the patient-external respiratory therapy device. 15. The system of claim 1, wherein the processing system is configured to select between one and both of the implantable device and the patient-external respiratory therapy device to deliver the therapy based on therapy effectiveness. 16. The system of claim 1, wherein the processing system is configured to select one or more sensors from the implantable device and to select one or more of sensors from the patient external respiratory therapy device. 17. The system of claim 1, wherein the processing system is configured to select both the implantable device and the patient-external respiratory device to deliver the therapy and the processing system is configured to coordinate the therapy between the implantable device and the patient-external respiratory device based on therapy characteristics of the implantable device and the patient-external respiratory device. 18. The system of claim 1, wherein both the implantable device and the patient-external respiratory therapy device are selected to provide the patient monitoring and the processing system is configured to coordinate the patient monitoring provided by the patient-external respiratory therapy device and the implantable device. 19. The system of claim 1, further comprising one or more additional devices including a patient input device, wherein coordination of the implantable device and the respiratory therapy device is based on information acquired from the patient input device.
