  • METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR GENERATING A TEMPLATE FOR ARRHYTHMIA DETECTION AND ELECTROGRAM MORPHOLOGY CLASSIFICATION
    Publication number: 20070276276
    Abstract: An implantable medical device and associated method for automatically generating morphology templates during fast cardiac rhythms, confirming a provisional template as a confirmed template, and using the confirmed template to classify subsequent detected arrhythmias. A provisional SVT template may be created during a fast ventricular rate and activated as a confirmed SVT template upon verification that the fast rate was due to an SVT. The confirmed SVT template may be used to discriminate SVT from VT/VF.
    Type: Application

  • Customer-specific follow-up frequency
    Publication number: 20070179567
    Abstract: A customer-specific follow-up frequency for patient management systems. Methods and systems are disclosed that involve providing implantable medical device (IMD) data, such as data related to an IMD, sensed physiological data, to multiple customers, such as physicians, nurses, technicians, and physician's assistants. The methods and systems allow multiple customers to receive the proper IMD data in the proper form and at the proper time for optimum patient/device management.
