Embodiments of the present disclosure relate to implantable cardiac sensors and associated diagnostic and treatment methods. In an exemplary embodiment, a medical system for determining a treatment regimen for a patient with a heart condition comprises a sensing device including a pressure sensor for monitoring and providing RVP information representative of right ventricle heart pressures. At least the pressure sensor is configured for implantation into a right ventricle of the patients heart. One or more processors are coupled to receive the RVP information and configured to determine a right atrial filling pressure based on the RVP information and a left atrial filling pressure based on the RVP information. A display device displays the right atrial filling pressure and the left atrial filling pressure. In embodiments, the one or more processors determine the left and right atrial filling pressures using the right ventricular pressure as a surrogate.
