Abstract

See full text

A method and apparatus concerning the retrieval and storage of status information obtained from patients having implantable medical devices (IMDs). When patients are having episodes during which symptoms are experienced relating to their medical condition, the collection of the patient's status information can be helpful to the patient's physician for diagnostic purposes. Telemetered signals recorded by the IMD can be transmitted from the IMD to a programmer. Such programmer is portable and sized so as to be carried by the patient. As such, mechanisms added to such programmers for use in retrieving and storing patient status information can provide more convenience for patients.
