  • Publication number: 20230317303
    Abstract: A system and method for facilitating remote care management involving a patient having an implantable medical device (IMD). Upon establishing a remote care session between a patient controller device and a clinician programmer, wherein the clinician and the patient are remotely located with respect to each other, input from the patient or the clinician may be received via a user interface control associated with a particular functionality or aspect of the remote care session, including audiovisual (AV) communications, remote therapy programming, and related context. Responsive to the user input, a dialog interface is effectuated at one of the patient controller device and/or the clinician programmer. A user characterization label is received via the dialog interface from the user, wherein the user characterization label is indicative of a subjective assessment of the particular functionality of the remote care session, which may be used in generating user-labeled data pertaining thereto.

  • Publication number: 20230100246
    Abstract: A system and method for modulating delivery of remote therapy to a patient having an implantable medical device (IMD). Upon establishing a remote care session between a patient controller device and a clinician programmer, wherein the clinician and the patient are remotely located with respect to each other, a determination may be made if a first triggering event is detected. Responsive to the determination, a remote therapy session used for programming the patient's IMD is paused and one or more remote care therapy setting controls provided at the clinician programmer device to facilitate one or more adjustments with respect to the patient's IMD are disabled. Subsequently, responsive to detecting a second triggering event, the remote therapy session with the patient may be resumed, wherein the one or more remote care therapy setting controls of the clinician programmer device are enabled.

  • Publication number: 20220184405
    Abstract: The present disclosure provides systems and methods for labeling data in an active implantable medical device system. The method includes capturing data associated with a remote therapy session between a patient device and a clinician device, prompting, via a user interface, a user to label the captured data in response to the user selecting, via the user interface, at least one of i) an image of a patient displayed on the user interface, ii) a programming setting displayed on the user interface, and iii) an affected body area displayed on the user interface, receiving, in response to the prompting, via the user interface, a user input associated with the captured data, generating, based on the user input, a label associated with the captured data, and storing the generated label in association with the captured data.

  • Publication number: 20220189626
    Abstract: The present disclosure provides systems and methods for improving quality of a remote therapy session. A method includes capturing, using a computing device, video data associated with a remote therapy session between a patient device and a clinician device, applying, using the computing device, one or more machine learning algorithms to the captured video data to detect a quality issue associated with the remote therapy session, the quality issue related to one of i) a field of view associated with the video data, ii) a luminance associated with the video data, and iii) a contrast associated with the video data, and performing, using the computing device, a remedial action to address the detected quality issue in the video data.
