Abstract: Therapeutic system with implantable therapeutic unit (ITU) comprising control unit (CU), memory, telemetry unit connected (in)directly to CU for wireless bidirectional transmission of data to/from external device (ED) and detection unit for detecting physiological patient data or operational data. CU triggers outgoing data transmission (DT) from ITU to ED based on preselected internal events and establishes standby mode for reception on part of telemetry unit for receiving beginning (header) of incoming DT from ED to therapeutic unit exclusively within preselected response time window after DT from ITU to ED.

Abstract: The invention consists of a system for remote programming of an implantable medical device such as a heart pacemaker, defibrillator or the like, wherein the system includes a programmable personal device (e.g., an implant) and a service center. The service center has a programming monitoring unit which determines a programming time endpoint which depends on the point in time at which a programming order was sent to the implant, and which cancels or deletes the programming order if the service center has not received a programming confirmation confirming successful receipt, execution, and/or forwarding of the programming order by the implant by the programming time endpoint.

Abstract: The invention comprises a system and a method for secure remote programming of an implant. For this purpose, a TAN list is generated on the part of the programming device and both stored in the implant (10) and also provided to a physician. The TAN list is preferably indexed and the implant predefines the index of a TAN in each case, which a physician must input to have a programming instruction executed by the implant.

Abstract: The invention comprises a system for the secure remote programming of an implant. A TAN server is provided for this purpose, in which a user is first accredited and which then generates a TAN upon a request and provides it to the user on one hand and to a patient intermediate device assigned to the implant to be reprogrammed on the other hand.

Abstract: An implantable medical device having a transceiver for transmitting/receiving wirelessly transmitted data, which is turned off or switched into an energy-saving rest state between individual data transmissions via the transceiver and having a waking unit which is implemented to switch the transceiver by a waking signal from its turned-off state or its rest state into its fully operational state, the waking unit having a low-power receiver and a waking control unit of which the low-power receiver is implemented to monitor multiple predefined frequency ranges in such a way that in case of a transmission of sufficient signal strength in one of the frequency ranges, it generates an output signal and outputs it to the waking control unit and of which the waking control unit is implemented to analyze output signals of the low-power receiver and output a waking signal to the transceiver which switches it on or to fully operational.

Abstract: A system (10) for managing data transmission for a medical device (20) has several data transmission protocols (15, 15?, 15?), each having a differentiating designation (30). Each of several medical devices (20) have an identification (45) which identifies the medical device (20), and a data transmission interface (35) for data transmission from and to the medical device (20). A management unit (25) has a query unit (45) for the designation (30) of the data transmission protocol (15, 15?, 15?) of a medical device (20) on the basis of its identification (30), and a storage unit (50) for storing data transmission protocols (15, 15?, 15?). The management unit (25) provides, on the basis of the designation query of an external device (55), a data transmission protocol (15, 15?, 15?) from the storage unit (50) which is compatible with the data transmission protocol (15, 15?, 15?) of the medical device (20).

Abstract: Individual implantable medical device (IMD) follow-up support unit supports follow-up session for IMD. IMD includes a data input for receiving IMD data which includes an IMD identification code identifying an individual IMD and IMD type, and IMD irregularity messages including data identifying type/date of irregularity, a database for storing IMD, a follow-up history dataset that includes date(s) of latest follow-up session.
