FACILITATING URGENCY MODULATED BEACONING RATES FOR MEDICAL DEVICES
First Claim
1. A medical device configured to be employed by a patient, comprising:
- a housing;
a memory, within the housing, that stores executable components; and
circuitry, within the housing, and configured to at least one of obtain sensed physiological data associated with the patient or deliver a therapy to the patient;
a processor, within the housing, that executes the executable components stored in the memory, wherein the executable components comprise;
a classification component configured to determine a classification for data generated by the medical device and to determine an urgency level for an advertising data packet based on the classification for the data; and
a communication component configured to broadcast the advertising data packet for the medical device at a defined beaconing rate based on the urgency level for the advertising data packet.

Abstract
Techniques for facilitating telemetry between a medical device and an external device are provided. In one example, a medical device includes a classification component and a communication component. The classification component is configured to determine a classification for data generated by the medical device. The classification component is also configured to determine an urgency level for an advertising data packet based on the classification for the data. The communication component is also configured to broadcast the advertising data packet for the medical device at a defined beaconing rate based on the urgency level for the advertising data packet.
