System and method for identifying and displaying medical data which violate programmable alarm conditions
First Claim
1. A diagnostic system for use with an implantable medical device, the system comprising:
- telemetry means for receiving medical data transmitted by the medical device;
means for defining at least one alarm condition;
long-term storage means for storing the at least one alarm condition;
first control means for applying the at least one alarm condition to the medical data to determine if any medical data values violate at least one alarm condition; and
second control means for marking portions of the medical data which violate at least one alarm condition.

Abstract
A system and method for identifying and displaying medical data items which violate programmable alarm conditions are provided. The system of the present invention automatically alerts the medical practitioner if changes or deviations in parametric and physiologic medical data items violate programmable alarm conditions. The system also provides the medical practitioner with the ability to edit, disable, and enable programmable alarm conditions associated with one or more parametric and physiologic medical data items. The system also allows the medical practitioner to select a range of medical data to be used when the determination of whether any alarm conditions were violated is made.

22. A diagnostic method for use with a medical device implanted in a patient, the method comprising the steps of:
-
telemetrically receiving medical data transmitted by the medical device; defining at least one alarm condition; storing the at least one alarm condition; applying the at least one alarm condition to the medical data to determine if any medical data values violate one of more of the at least one alarm condition; and marking portions of the medical data having values which violate one or more of the at least one alarm condition. - View Dependent Claims (23, 24, 25, 26, 27, 28, 29, 30, 31, 32, 33, 34, 35, 36, 37, 38, 39, 40, 41, 42)
