摘要:
Systems and related methods for analyzing data sensed from a device implanted in a patient, such as a cardiac pacing system. The system detects and evaluates electric signals within the patient that share a common event marker. By using algorithms and graphical presentation of the collected signals having common event markers, deviations in signals over time can be identified and evaluated in consideration of taking further action related to the patient and the implanted device. The system can also be used in conjunction with an advanced patient management system that includes a programmer or repeater capable of gathering information from the implanted device and transmitting the data to a host via a communications network for evaluation at a remote location.

摘要:
A system and method for adaptively adjusting patient data collection in an automated patient management environment is presented. A patient is monitored through continual remote patient management. Physiological measures are collected from the patient on a substantially regular basis. The collected physiological measures are analyzed to evaluate patient status based on an assessment to recognize a trend in status quo, progression, regression, onset, or absence of a health condition affecting the patient. An actionable change in the patient is identified. The collection of the physiological measures is dynamically adjusted in response to the actionable change.
摘要:
A system and method for providing goal-oriented patient management based upon comparative population data analysis is presented. At least one therapy goal is defined to manage a disease state. A patient population is selected sharing at least one characteristic with an individual patient presenting with indications of the disease state. One or more treatment regimens associated with the patient population are identified as implementing actions under the at least one therapy goal. The implementing actions are followed through one or more quantifiable physiological indications monitored via data sources associated with the patient.

A system and method for managing patient triage in an automated patient management system is presented. A criteria for placement of patient data into a display is defined for a plurality of remotely managed patients. The patient data originates from one or more patient data sources operating on each such patient and selected from at least one of a physiological sensor and a therapy delivery device. An ordering of the patient data within the display is defined based on a need of care in relation to one or more of a type of health condition, severity of the health condition, and facilities available to attend to the health condition. An organization of the patient data within the display is defined in relation to metadata associated with the patient data.
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 affects to the patient may also trigger the device to revert to the normal programming during either the first or second time period.
摘要:
A system and method for providing hierarchical medical device control for automated patient management is presented. A processor is operatively coupled to a plurality of medical devices on a substantially continual basis to receive sensor data. A control strategy is assigned to the processor to specify actions to be taken by the medical devices to affect the attainment of a therapy goal. State is maintained, selected from the group comprising a history of changes to the control strategy and past sensor data received from the medical devices. Feedback is periodically received. The feedback includes new sensor data from the medical devices. The feedback and the state are analyzed against the actions specified in the control strategy. Control is provided to one or more medical device in response to an actionable change from the actions specified in the control strategy.

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.
