A cardiac rhythm management system provides a phonocardiographic image
indicative of a heart's mechanical events related to hemodynamic
performance. The phonocardiographic image includes a stack of acoustic
sensor signal segments representing multiple cardiac cycles. Each
acoustic sensor signal segment includes heart sounds indicative of the
heart's mechanical events and representations of the heart's electrical
events. The stack of acoustic sensor signal segments are aligned by a
selected type of the heart's mechanical or electrical events and are
grouped by a cardiac timing parameter for presentation.
