Abstract

An exemplary system includes a programmer configured to instruct an implantable device and a qualification module with instructions to call for tests performed by an implantable device configured for delivery of CRT, to receive results from the tests, to analyze the results and to decide, based on the analysis, if the patient qualifies for automatic, implantable device-based optimization of one or more CRT parameters and, only if the patient qualifies for automatic, implantable device-based optimization of one or more CRT parameters, presenting a graphical user interface that comprises a selectable control to enable an algorithm of an implantable device to automatically optimize at least one of the one or more cardiac resynchronization therapy parameters. Other exemplary methods, devices, systems, etc., are also disclosed.

Dependent claims

A method, implemented by a computing device, the method comprising:

receiving patient information for a patient;
analyzing the patient information;
and
based on the analyzing, deciding if the patient qualifies for automatic, implantable device-based optimization of one or more cardiac resynchronization therapy;
and,
for a patient qualified for automatic, implantable device-based optimization of one or more cardiac resynchronization therapy parameters, presenting a graphical user interface that comprises a selectable control to enable an algorithm of an implantable device to automatically optimize at least one of the one or more cardiac resynchronization therapy parameters;
otherwise, presenting a graphical user interface that comprises a notice that the patient does not qualify and that does not comprise a selectable control to enable an algorithm of an implantable device to automatically optimize the one or more cardiac resynchronization therapy parameters.
