    Abstract: Devices and systems provide for proximity based selection of an implantable medical device for far field communication with an external device. By using a proximity communication that is limited to the IMD of interest during the selection process, the external device can eliminate those IMDs that are in range of far field communications but are able to receive the proximity communication. Thus, information may be shared via a proximity communication that is validated via a far field communication, or shared via a far field communication as a challenge and then validated via a proximity communication. The proximity communication may be used to initially limit the number of devices that respond to a discovery request and then subsequently used to select the intended implantable medical device as well as automatically select the appropriate therapy application corresponding to the selected IMD.

    Abstract translation: 设备和系统提供用于与外部设备进行远场通信的可植入医疗设备的基于邻近度的选择。 通过在选择过程中使用限于感兴趣的IMD的邻近通信,外部设备可以消除处于远场通信范围但能够接收邻近通信的那些IMD。 因此,信息可以通过经由远场通信验证的邻近通信共享,或者经由远场通信作为挑战共享,然后经由邻近通信来验证。 邻近通信可以用于初始限制响应于发现请求的设备的数量,然后随后用于选择预期的可植入医疗设备,并且自动选择与所选择的IMD相对应的适当的治疗应用。
