Abstract: An intelligent patient management system collects data from a variety of sources, processes that information, and provides relevant information to an appropriate caregiver in context at the proper time. The system has multiple information sources available from which to gather additional information based upon conclusions drawn or issues identified from the patient data.

Abstract: A system for accessing implantable medical device (IMD) data is provided including an interrogation appliance to retrieve data from an IMD and transfer the data to a processor. The processor converts the device data to a viewable form that is transferred by the processor to a data destination. The data destination may be an electronic mail address, a secure web site, a facsimile number or the interrogation appliance. The data is presented in a viewable form at the data destination either on a display or by printing. Any number of interrogation appliances may be communicatively coupled to the processor for converting IMD data and providing the IMD data back to a data destination in a viewable form for use by a clinician.

Abstract: In general, the invention is directed to techniques for prioritized presentation of implantable medical device (IMD) events based on relative importance. Given a prioritization of events, the techniques permit presentation of events in an order or format that directs a clinician's attention to important events. In some embodiments, a clinician simultaneously views events obtained from multiple IMDs associated with multiple patients, e.g., via single user interface, and is aided by an order or format of presentation that reflects event prioritization. In some cases, an IMD event with a priority above a predetermined threshold triggers special actions. As one example, an event with a high relative importance may be presented using a conspicuous text format. As another example, an event with a priority above the threshold may trigger a notification to a clinician, or other persons.
