Network analysis of a patient's neuro-cardio-respiratory system can be performed to detect an impending crisis, diagnose an abnormality, and/or provide informative feedback about a treatment regime. A system can receive data recorded by one or more recording devices from a patient. The data is time varying and related to two or more organs of the patient's neuro-cardio-respiratory system that are monitored. The system can estimate directional interactions between the two or more organs within the patient's body over time via a mathematical analysis of the data to identify one or more pathologies in a network of the neuro-cardio-respiratory system. When the one or more pathologies are identified, the system can provide the advance warning of the impending crisis, the diagnosis of the abnormality, or the informative feedback for the treatment regime.
