    摘要: A telemetry system and method of monitoring cardiac activity or providing therapy to the heart for an implantable cardiac device. The system includes a receiver and a transmitter in an external programmer and a receiver section and transmitter section in the cardiac device. The receiver section and the transmitter section of the cardiac device generally remain in a de-energized state. The receiver section is energized at spaced apart time intervals to detect an initiation signal transmitted by the external programmer. If the initiation signal is detected, the receiver section and the transmitter section of the cardiac device are fully activated. The external programmer includes a signal strength indicating means for providing an indication of received signal strength which the user can use to position the receiver and transmitter in the external programmer for optimum received signal strength. An antenna is disposed in the header of the implanted device to facilitate communication at high speed.

    摘要: An improved protection mechanism to protect from unintended execution of critical tasks operates, in one example embodiment, by receiving a request to start a task by a first process. The first process informs a second process of running an algorithm to verify the legitimacy of the received request to determine the need to start the task. The second process stores the information regarding the starting the algorithm by the first process. The first process runs the algorithm to verify the legitimacy of the received request, and conveys an outcome of the verification to the second process. The second process enables the start of the task by the first process based on the outcome of the verification and a checking of the stored information and the first process starts the task.
