Abstract: An arrhythmia classification system receives cardiac data from an implantable medical device, performs automatic adjudication of each cardiac arrhythmia episode indicated by the cardiac data, and generates episode data representative of information associated with the episode. The episode data include at least an episode classification resulting from the automatic adjudication of the episode and a confidence level in the episode classification. In one embodiment, the episode data further include key features rationalizing the automatic adjudication of the episode.
