Abstract: Systems and related methods for analyzing data sensed from a device implanted in a patient, such as a cardiac pacing system. The system detects and evaluates electric signals within the patient that share a common event marker. By using algorithms and graphical presentation of the collected signals having common event markers, deviations in signals over time can be identified and evaluated in consideration of taking further action related to the patient and the implanted device. The system can also be used in conjunction with an advanced patient management system that includes a programmer or repeater capable of gathering information from the implanted device and transmitting the data to a host via a communications network for evaluation at a remote location.

Abstract: A system and method for adaptively adjusting patient data collection in an automated patient management environment is presented. A patient is monitored through continual remote patient management. Physiological measures are collected from the patient on a substantially regular basis. The collected physiological measures are analyzed to evaluate patient status based on an assessment to recognize a trend in status quo, progression, regression, onset, or absence of a health condition affecting the patient. An actionable change in the patient is identified. The collection of the physiological measures is dynamically adjusted in response to the actionable change.

Abstract: Systems and methods for telemetric communication between a handheld programmer and an implantable medical device are disclosed. A preferred embodiment comprises a user-friendly, color, touch-sensitive screen that allows the user to visually observe and control the handheld's operation. The handheld further comprises an internal and/or external analytical means to provide robust analytical capabilities. Some embodiments of a system disclosed herein can be configured as a component of an Advanced Patient Management System that helps better monitor, predict and manage chronic diseases.
