Abstract

See full text

A programmable pacemaker system, having a programmer which has the capability of making software control modifications to a family of pacemakers types which can be software modified with different control functions. The programmer carries manual data relating to the manual corresponding to each pacemaker type. Whenever a new control software release is loaded into the programmer, an accompanying new manual portion is also loaded into programmer memory; the programmer can determine what manual portion or portions are superseded if the new control software is downloaded into any one of the respective different pacemaker types of the family. Whenever a programmer is used to download a new control routine into an implanted pacemaker, the programmer automatically provides the option to display and/or print a new applicable manual portion; superseded manual portions due to downloading operations; and/or the entire manual corresponding to the pacemaker as modified by the downloading operation.
