摘要:
An interactive representation of electrostimulation electrodes or vectors can be provided, such as for configuring combinations of electrostimulation electrodes. In an example, electrodes or test parameters can be presented graphically or in a table. A user interface can be configured to receive user-input designating electrode combinations or vectors for test or for use in programming an implantable or ambulatory medical device. The interface can be used to indicate suggested electrode combinations or vectors in response to a first selection of an electrode. Tests can be performed on electrode combinations and vectors, and the results of the tests can be presented to a user using the interactive representation. In an example, test results can be analyzed by a processor and optionally used to program an implantable or ambulatory medical device.

One way in which cardiac resynchronization therapy may be delivered is to only deliver paces to the left ventricle. If left ventricular pacing is inhibited during a cardiac cycle, it may be desirable to deliver a right ventricular safety pace to prevent asystole. Methods and devices for implementing right ventricular safety pacing in the context of multi-site left ventricular-only pacing are described.

Biventricular-triggered pacing is a pacing mode that can employ in cardiac resynchronization pacing at elevated heart rates. Described herein are methods and devices for implementing biventricular pacing in the context of multi-site left ventricular pacing.
摘要:
A refractory period for a pacemaker sensing channel refers to a period of time during which the sensing channel is either blind to incoming electrical signals, termed a blanking interval, and/or during which the device is configured to ignore such signals for purposes of sense event detection. Methods and devices for implementing refractory periods in the context of multi-site left ventricular pacing are described.

摘要:
Embodiments of the invention are related to systems for interfacing with implantable medical devices, amongst other things. In an embodiment, the invention includes an external medical system including a processor and a telemetry circuit in communication with the processor, the processor configured to communicate with an implanted medical device. The system can be configured to query a system user after a first period of time in which indicators of system use are not detected. The system can be further configured to deactivate one or more data transmission features of the implanted medical device after a second period of time in which one or more indicators of system use are not detected. Other embodiments are also included herein.
摘要:
A system and method for handling data received from an implantable medical device (IMD) is provided. The method includes communicating a device parameter value of an IMD device parameter from the IMD to an external device and determining, at the external device, that the communicated device parameter value is at an improper value. Additionally, in response to the determining that the communicated device parameter value is at an improper value, automatically performing at least one of re-programming the IMD device parameter with a selected substitute device parameter value, ignoring, or purging non-programmable data.
