摘要:
A system and method for temporary programming of an implantable medical device. The system and method include a repeater uploading temporary programming and instructions to a temporary memory of the device and then instructing the device to operate according to the temporary instructions. If during a first time period, the device is not in continuous periodic communication with the repeater, the device automatically reverts to operation under the normal operating instructions. At the end of the first time period, the caregiver or the patient may decide to revert to the normal programming. During a second time period, the device operates according to the temporary programming unless the caregiver or the patient instructs the device to revert to the normal programming, or the device fails to receive a periodic continuation signal from the repeater. Adverse health effects to the patient may also trigger the device to revert to the normal programming during either the first or second time period.

Systems and methods for radio frequency identification and tagging of implantable medical devices and their components are disclosed. A preferred embodiment includes tagging a device and its components with manufacturing information relating to the device and it components and with information identifying a patient using the device. The information can be automatically transmitted or extracted from the device when the device or its components come into communication range of an external programmer or other device adapted to read or sense the RFID information. Some embodiments of a system disclosed herein can also be configured as a component of an Advanced Patient Management System that helps better monitor, predict and manage chronic diseases.

This document discusses, among other things, systems and method for integrated health care home communication and monitoring. A method comprising: communicating, from a remote server to an external interface device that communicates with a medical device in use by a patient, a patient communication to be received by the patient; and receiving, from the external interface device, at the remote server, a patient acknowledgement to the patient communication, the patient acknowledgement indicative of the patient communication having been delivered by the external interface device to the patient and acknowledging that the patient has received the patient communication.
摘要:
A system and method for providing audio data to assist in electronic medical records management is presented. A plurality of patient electronic health records are maintained. Each patient electronic health record stores non-audio patient medical information identifiable by patient. Storage and retrieval of the patient electronic health records is managed through an electronic medical records system. Audio data recorded by a healthcare provider to chronicle at least one aspect of health for a patient is stored. The audio data is associated with the patient electronic health record in the electronic medical records system corresponding to the patient. The audio data for the patient is securely accessed through a non-content-based index keyed to the electronic medical records system.
