Claim:
A system comprising: an external programmer adapted to interface with an implantable medical device, the programmer comprising: a communication module adapted to communicate with the implantable medical device; and a graphical user interface adapted to communicate information to a user, the graphical user interface adapted to display a management screen configured to receive proposed programming changes initiated by a clinician, the clinician-initiated proposed programming changes including a suite of parameters including A-Tachy Response, A-Flutter Response, Ventricular Rate Regulation, ProACt, and A-Pacing Preference, the management screen including a one-touch feature configured to set all parameters in the suite with actuation of the one-touch feature, and the graphical user interface further adapted to display, in response to and after all clinician-initiated proposed changes have been received in the management screen from the clinician, in a proposed changes screen different from the management screen, a summary of the clinician-initiated proposed changes to the programming of the implantable medical device, the clinician-initiated proposed changes shown on the proposed changes screen in visual correspondence with corresponding previously-existing parameter values, the proposed changes screen configured to require clinician review of the clinician-initiated proposed new parameter values and to allow clinician correction of the clinician-initiated proposed new parameter values before the clinician-initiated proposed new parameter values are implemented.
