Abstract:
1. A system comprising: an implantable cardiac stimulation device that is operative to internally monitor signals indicative of cardiac activity; at least one implantable sensor capable of monitoring at least one internally measured parameter, the at least one implantable sensor being detached from the implantable cardiac stimulation device; a programmer capable of providing control signals to the implantable cardiac stimulation device and of displaying information received from the implantable cardiac stimulation device and the at least one implantable sensor simultaneously so as to allow a clinician to simultaneously view the information in at least a quasi-real-time manner; and a telemetry system operative to establish a telemetry link between the programmer and the implantable cardiac stimulation device and the at least one implantable sensor, the telemetry system operative to establish a telemetry link directly between the implantable cardiac stimulation device and the at least one implantable sensor.
