Programmer for Biostimulator System
First Claim
Patent Images
1. A biostimulator system comprising:
- at least one implantable device; and
an external programmer configured for communicating with the at least one implantable device through at least two electrodes of the external programmer via bidirectional communication pathways, the communication pathways comprising a receiving pathway that decodes information encoded on modulated signals generated by the at least one implantable device and conducted through body tissue to the at least two electrodes of the external programmer.
