Abstract: A cardiovascular pressure data analyzing system having one or more implanted pressure sensors, an implanted communication device in wireless communication with the sensor and an external data processing unit adapted to use real-time barometric data to calibrate uncalibrated pressure data received from the communication device. The external data processing unit can be portable, is in communication with a remote database to transfer the calibrated pressure data to the remote database, and is capable of providing reprogramming information to the communication device. A method of analyzing pressure data including gathering pressure data from an implanted pressure sensor in a human body, retrieving the pressure data through a communication device implanted in the human body, transmitting pressure data from the communication device to an external data processing unit, and calibrating the pressure data at the external processing unit to compensate for inherent characteristics of the sensor.
