A graphic user interface for a cardiac implant, such as an implant programmer, includes image generators for generating multiple images on a screen, each image corresponding to as representation of a parameter related to the operation of the implant or a cardiac function, and an indicia generator for superimposing on the images an indicia indicative of the interrelation between the parameters. The indicia allows a user to obtain a clear understanding and appreciation of the cause and effect rules between various cardiac parameters and/or functions, the parameters or functions could be actual, i.e., obtained from the implant and/or the patient's heart, or they can be simulated to provide the user an indication on how the pacemaker will operate under these simulated conditions parameters.
A graphic display apparatus for displaying information on a screen related to the operation of a cardiac implant and associated cardiac functions, said apparatus comprising:
A graphic user interface for a cardiac implant, said implant being constructed and arranged for implantation in a patient, said interface comprising:
An apparatus for interrogating and configuring an implanted device, said implanted device being constructed and arranged to apply therapy to a biological organ such as the heart of a patient, said apparatus comprising:
