Abstract: A communication system for enabling a writing operation in a memory of an implantable medical device. The communication system includes an intermediate proximity device configured to receive writing data transmitted by a main writing device, the intermediate proximity device configured to communicate with the implantable medical device. The system also includes a first external unlocking tool configured to transmit a detectable signal when the first external unlocking tool is located within a predetermined perimeter of the implantable medical device, where the intermediate proximity device is configured to cause the implantable medical device to write the writing data into the memory of the implantable medical device when the first external unlocking tool is in the predetermined perimeter of the implantable medical device.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a system and a method for improving the security of an operation for writing the memory of an active implantable medical device by long distance telemetry, in particular via network connection with a writing main device. The system and method according to the present invention comprise an intermediate proximity device allowing communication between the active implantable medical device and the main writing device and at least one unlocking tool allowing access to the active implantable medical device.
