Abstract
A self audit system for use in managing and monitoring measurements acquired by an implantable medical device in a period of time. The self audit system providing a system and method for, but not limited to, programming one or more valid ranges for one or more measurements acquired in an implantable medical device, acquiring one or more measurements in an implantable medical device, comparing the one or more measurements to their associated valid ranges, recording information about a measurement if it is not within its associated valid range and displaying a warning message if a measurement is not within its associated valid range.
