MEDICAL DEVICE PROGRAMMER WITH ADJUSTABLE KICKSTAND
First Claim
1. A medical device programmer comprising:
- a telemetry module that wirelessly communicates with an implantable medical device (IMD) that delivers therapy to a patient;
a processor that communicates with the IMD via the telemetry module;
a user interface including a display that displays data received from the IMD and receives input from a user;
a memory that stores selectable patient therapy parameters for the IMD;
a programmer housing with a base below the display; and
an adjustable kickstand on a side of the programmer housing that opposes the display,wherein the kickstand is configured to combine with the base to support the programmer in a upright position when the kickstand is fully-collapsed, andwherein the kickstand is configured to combine with the base to support the programmer in a reclined position when the kickstand is fully-extended.

Abstract
A programmer for an implantable medical device includes an adjustable kickstand. In one example, the kickstand is configured to combine with the base to support the programmer in an upright position when the kickstand is fully-collapsed to support the programmer in a reclined position when the kickstand is fully-extended. Further, the programmer housing may include a fan grate that allows airflow from a cooling fan to pass through the programmer housing. The fan grate is positioned behind the kickstand when the kickstand is in the fully-collapsed position. The kickstand includes an aperture adjacent the fan grate when the kickstand is in the fully-collapsed position, the aperture allowing airflow from the cooling fan to pass through the fan grate when the kickstand is in the fully-collapsed position.

19. A medical device programmer comprising:
-
a telemetry module that wirelessly communicates with an implantable medical device (IMD) that delivers therapy to a patient; a processor that communicates with the IMD via the telemetry module; a user interface including a display that displays data received from the IMD and receives input from a user; a memory that stores selectable patient therapy parameters for the IMD; a programmer housing with a base below the display; an adjustable kickstand on a side of the programmer housing that opposes the display; and a cooling fan to cool electronic components of the programmer; wherein the programmer housing includes a fan grate that allows airflow from the cooling fan to pass through the programmer housing, wherein the fan grate is positioned behind the kickstand when the kickstand is in the fully-collapsed position, and wherein the kickstand includes an aperture adjacent the fan grate when the kickstand is in the fully-collapsed position, the aperture allowing airflow from the cooling fan to pass through the fan grate when the kickstand is in the fully-collapsed position. - View Dependent Claims (20)
