Abstract: Implantable medical systems enter an exposure mode of operation, either manually via a down linked programming instruction or by automatic detection by the implantable system of exposure to a magnetic disturbance. A controller then determines the appropriate exposure mode by considering various pieces of information including the device type including whether the device has defibrillation capability, pre-exposure mode of therapy including which chambers have been paced, and pre-exposure cardiac activity that is either intrinsic or paced rates. Additional considerations may include determining whether a sensed rate during the exposure mode is physiologic or artificially produced by the magnetic disturbance. When the sensed rate is physiologic, then the controller uses the sensed rate to trigger pacing and otherwise uses asynchronous pacing at a fixed rate.

Abstract: A method and system for creating and/or performing music via the Internet. The music is created and/or performed at a client system using a software application and sound tone-banks/loops delivered via a server system. The server system responds to an authorized user's request to transmit the necessary application and tone-banks/loops to the client, thereby creating a complete environment where the user can actuate the tones in the tone-bank or loops and store the actuation events locally or on a remote system for later retrieval.
