ABSTRACT:
A system for providing cardiac stimulation to a patient includes an implantable stimulation device with a microprocessor and a separate programmer. The stimulation device includes a memory holding substantially all the information necessary to program the device, including device specific information such as various modes of operations, the operational parameters associated with each mode, as well as patient specific information. All this information is transferred to the programmer for display and for generating a program. The program is than transferred back to the device for operating its microprocessor. In this manner, any programmer can be used to generate a program for any cardiac stimulation device without the need for providing specific programming information to the programmer for each specific device.
