In some examples, the disclosure relates to a systems, devices, and techniques for monitoring the occurrence of food intake by a patient. In one example, the disclosure relates to a method including determining a phase of tissue impedance at one or more gastrointestinal tract locations of a patient via a medical device, and determining the occurrence of food intake by the patient based on the determined phase of the tissue impedance. In some examples, a medical device may control the delivery of therapy to a patient based on the determination of food intake based on the phase to the tissue impedance.

A system and method for controlling a monitoring mode or treatment mode of an implantable medical device based on the detection of an external signal. The system and related method allow for more frequent monitoring of medical parameters at times where more frequent monitoring is necessary, such as during or after a dialysis session, with less frequent monitoring at other times, allowing for a more efficient medical device. The invention also allows for the frequency or mode of treatment by the implantable medical device, or the transmission of data from the implantable medical device to be controlled based on the external signal.
