A communication device (CD) exchanges messages with an implantable infusion pump via telemetry such that commands are supplied thereto and operational information is obtained therefrom. The CD is controlled, at least in part, by a processor IC according to a software program operating therein and pr ...
An implantable infusion pump possesses operational functionality that is, at least in part, controlled by software operating in two processor ICs which are configured to perform some different and some duplicate functions. The pump exchanges messages with an external device via telemetry. Each proce ...

An electronic circuit for sensing an output of a sensor having at least one electrode pair and circuitry for obtaining and processing the sensor output. The electrode pair may be laid out such that one electrode is wrapped around the other electrode in a U-shaped fashion. The electronic circuitry ma ...
During the telemetering of telemetry signals between an implantable medical device and an external programmer, the transmitter power of the implantable device is dynamically adjusted. The programmer measures the strength of the telemetry signals transmitted by the implantable device. A power control ...
A system is provided for sensing blood glucose data of a patient. The system includes a sensor, user interface, and an optional auxiliary device. If the connection between the sensor and user interface is by a wire, the sensor remains powered when the wire is disconnected. The communication between ...
A system and method for measuring and storing parametric data pertaining to the operating characteristics of an implantable medical device are provided. The parametric data may include the impedance of a lead that is attached to a patient's heart, and the internal impedance of a battery used to powe ...
