1. A stroke detection system comprising:
a sensor device comprising:
a housing configured to be subcutaneously implanted at a portion of a neck or a head of a patient;
a plurality of electrodes on the housing; and
circuitry within the housing configured to obtain physiological data of the patient, wherein the physiological data comprises electrical brain activity data and electrical heart activity data of the patient sensed via the plurality of electrodes; and
processing circuitry configured to:
analyze the physiological data; and
based on the analysis, provide a patient stroke indicator.
