Intracardiac device and method for storing cardiac test results and associated EGM data
First Claim
1. An intracardiac stimulation device comprising:
- a) a memory; and
b) a processor such that the intracardiac stimulation device is capable of;
performing an out-of-clinic test;
automatically recording in the intracardiac stimulation device a measured test result from the out-of-clinic test into the memory;
recording in the intracardiac stimulation device non-contiguous electrogram data corresponding with cardiac event complexes used to determine the measured test result into the memory;
recording in the intracardiac stimulation device marker data associated with the non-contiguous electrogram data into the memory;
transmitting the non-contiguous electrogram data and marker data to an external device; and
displaying on a visual display at least a portion of the non-contiguous electrogram data and marker data in clinic.

Abstract
In a possible implementation, a method for cardiac testing is provided which includes measuring test data associated with cardiac events and storing the test data in an intracardiac stimulation device. The method further includes acquiring event electrograms corresponding with the test data and storing the event electrograms corresponding with the test data in the intracardiac stimulation device. In a possible implementation, marker data is stored associating event electrograms with measured test data, which may identify the event electrograms used for measuring the test data and/or identify when adjacent event electrograms are not contiguous. In some implementations, the test data may be measured and stored in an out-of-clinic test, and the test data and the corresponding event electrograms may be later retrieved from the intracardiac stimulation device and presented on a visual display.
