1. A medical device programmer for communicating with an implantable cardioverter defibrillator, comprising:
- a transmitter configured to transmit predetermined detection zones of interest each specifying one type of a plurality of types of arrhythmia to the implantable cardioverter defibrillator;
a receiver configured to receive a count for each detected occurrence of each type of the plurality of types of arrhythmia from the implantable cardioverter defibrillator; and
a display configured to display a plurality of graphs each showing a plurality of frequencies of occurrences of at least one type of the plurality of types of arrhythmia detected over a second predetermined period including a plurality of first predetermined periods, the frequencies each being a frequency of occurrences of the at least one type of the plurality of types of arrhythmia detected over a first predetermined period of the plurality of first predetermined periods,wherein the plurality of types of arrhythmia includes at least ventricular tachycardia and ventricular fibrillation.
