Abstract
A system is disclosed having a medical device that initiates a communication with a centrally situated server. During this interaction, status and programming information is sent from the medical device to the server. The server stores the information temporarily and dispatches a processed version of the real time or compiled information to the appropriate terminal device when the terminal device initiates its communication or when significant events need to be dispatched to the terminal device.
