Abstract
An implantable medical device (IMD) senses physiological episodes and stores data associated with the physiological episodes in the IMD. The data is then processed based on a pattern of recurrence of the physiological episodes.
Claims28
A method for processing data from an implantable medical device (IMD), the method comprising:
- sensing physiological episodes;
- storing data associated with the physiological episodes in the IMD;
- and
- processing the data based on a pattern of recurrence of the physiological episodes.
1 more element
A system comprising:
- an implantable medical device (IMD) operable to sense and store chronic data representative of a physiological episode;
- and
- a processing unit operable to receive the chronic data and to characterize the chronic data based on temporal patterns in the chronic data.
An implantable medical device (IMD) comprising:
- sensor circuitry that generates chronic data representative of a physiological episode;
- memory circuitry that stores the chronic data;
- and
- processing circuitry that characterizes the chronic data based on temporal patterns in the chronic data.
