Computer readable storage medium containing code for automated collection and analysis of patient information retrieved from an implantable medical device for remote patient care
First Claim
1. A computer-readable storage medium containing code for automated remote patient care using patient information retrieved from a medical device adapted to be implanted in a patient, comprising:
- organizing one or more patient care records in a database with each patient care record comprising a plurality of the collected measurements sets, each collected measurements set comprising individual measurements which each relate to patient information recorded by a medical device adapted to be implanted for an individual patient;
receiving a set of the collected measurements periodically sent from the implantable medical device over a communications link;
storing the collected measurements set into the patient care record in the database for the individual patient;
analyzing one or more of the collected measurements sets in the patient care record for the individual patient relative to one or more other collected measurements sets stored in the patient care record of the individual patient; and
sending feedback based on the analysis of the one or more collected measurements sets to the individual patient over a feedback communications link.

Abstract
A computer readable storage medium containing code for automated collection and analysis of patient information retrieved from a medical device adapted to be implanted in a patient for remote patient care is described. A set of collected measures is periodically received from the medical device adapted to be implanted over a communications link which is interfaced to a network server. The collected measures set includes individual measures which each relate to patient information recorded by the medical device adapted to be implanted for an individual patient. The collected measures set is stored into a patient care record for the individual patient within a database server organized to store one or more patient care records. Each patient care record includes a plurality of the collected measures sets. One or more of the collected measures sets in the patient care record for the individual patient is analyzed relative to one or more other collected measures sets stored in the database server to determine a patient status indicator.
