  • Publication number: 20240075304
    Abstract: A medical device includes wake circuitry and telemetry circuitry. The wake circuitry is configured to receive a first set of data from a device associated with the medical device, where the first set of data is received at a frequency band. The wake circuitry is configured to output a set of pulses based on the first set of data. The wake circuitry is configured to detect a data pattern using the set of pulses. The wake circuitry is configured to output an activation signal in response to a determination that the data pattern satisfies a data pattern requirement. The telemetry circuitry is configured to output a second set of data in response to receiving the activation signal. The second set of data is transmitted at the frequency band. The telemetry circuitry is configured to establish a communication session with the device using the second set of data.

  • Publication number: 20240001128
    Abstract: An example system includes telemetry circuitry configured for communication between a medical device and an external device associated with the medical device and processing circuitry. The processing circuitry is configured to receive, with the telemetry circuitry, an advertisement from the medical device. The advertisement includes connection parameters for a potential communication session with the medical device and an indication that the medical device is connected by an established communication session between the medical device and a connected device. The processing circuitry is further configured to identify the connected device using the indication of the advertisement, initiate a communication session between the telemetry circuitry and the connected device, and output, with the telemetry circuitry and using the communication session between the telemetry circuitry and the connected device, a request for information from the medical device.

  • Publication number: 20230209444
    Abstract: In one example, a system includes telemetry circuitry configured for communication between a medical device and an external device associated with the medical device and processing circuitry. The processing circuitry is configured to determine an advertising interval for communication between the external device and the medical device based on sensor information from the external device. The processing circuitry is further configured to configure the medical device to advertise at the determined advertising interval.

  • Publication number: 20230201575
    Abstract: In one example, a system includes telemetry circuitry configured for communication between a medical device and an external device associated with the medical device and processing circuitry. The processing circuitry is configured to determine connection parameters for a connection between the medical device and the external device based on one or more of first information detected by the external device or second information detected by the medical device. The processing circuitry is further configured to output an advertisement for the connection between the medical device and the external device based on the connection parameters and establish the connection between the medical device and the external device according to advertisement.
