Abstract
A passive communication scheme between one or more external instruments communicable with one or more implanted medical devices (IMDs) provides a system to collect data from the IMDs. Further, the one or more programmers are communicable with a remote central server or a network where the collected data is stored. The one or more external instruments exchange data by passively interrogating each other and any proximate IMD or IMDs. Specifically, the external instruments may be represented by a programmer type device. The programmer is enabled to interrogate and exchange data with one or more IMDs in one or more patients when they come within telemetry or wireless communication range. Similarly, two or more programmers interrogate and exchange data with each other when placed within a telemetry or wireless communication range. Further, data collected by the programmer or programmers is transferred to a central location using network and equivalent data transmission medium.
