1. A system comprising:
- a local user system to interact with an implantable medical device; and
a local input device communicatively coupled to the local user system to generate local events to program or interrogate the implantable medical device;
wherein, to operate the local user system, the local user system is to receive and process local events from the local input device and receive and process remote events to program or interrogate the implantable medical device from a remote user system communicatively coupled to the local user system over a network communication link, andthe local user system to monitor the network communication link and abort processing of a remote event in response to detecting a quality of service issue with the network communication link.

Abstract
One example of a system includes a local user system to interact with an implantable medical device and a local input device communicatively coupled to the local user system to generate local events. To operate the local user system, the local user system is to receive and process local events from the local input device and receive and process remote events from a remote user system communicatively coupled to the local user system over a network communication link. The local user system is to monitor the network communication link and abort processing of a remote event in response to detecting a quality of service issue.

9. A non-transitory machine-readable storage medium encoded with instructions, the instructions executable by a processor of a local user system to cause the local user system to:
-
receive, from an input device of the local user system, local events to interact with an implantable medical device via the local user system to interrogate the implantable medical device, program the implantable medical device, or deliver a therapy to a patient via the implantable medical device; receive, from an input device of a remote user system communicatively coupled to the local user system, remote events to interact with the implantable medical device via the local user system to interrogate the implantable medical device, program the implantable medical device, or deliver a therapy to a patient via the implantable medical device; process the local events and the remote events; monitor a network communication link between the local user system and the remote user system; and abort processing of a remote event in response to detecting a quality of service issue with the network communication link. - View Dependent Claims (10, 11, 12, 13)

14. A method comprising:
-
receiving, at a local user system, a local event to interact with an implantable medical device to interrogate the implantable medical device, program the implantable medical device, or deliver a therapy to a patient via the implantable medical device; receiving, at the local user system from a remote user system communicatively coupled to the local user system over a network communication link, a remote event to interact with the implantable medical device to interrogate the implantable medical device, program the implantable medical device, or deliver a therapy to a patient via the implantable medical device; processing the local event and the remote event; monitoring the network communication link; and aborting processing of the remote event in response to detecting a quality of service issue with the network communication link. - View Dependent Claims (15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20)

21. A system comprising:
-
a local user system including a programmer, to interact with an implantable medical device via a wireless communication link; and a local input device communicatively coupled to the local user system to generate local events to interrogate the implantable medical device, program the implantable medical device, or deliver a therapy to a patient via the implantable medical device; wherein, to operate the local user system, the local user system is to receive and process local events from the local input device and receive and process remote events to interrogate the implantable medical device, program the implantable medical device, or deliver a therapy to a patient via the implantable medical device from a remote user system, and the local user system to monitor a network communication link between the local user system and the remote user system, and abort processing of a remote event and only process local events in response to detecting a quality of service issue with the network communication link.
