TASK-ORIENTED INDUCTION CAPABILITIES FOR ICDS AND PROGRAMMERS

摘要

The invention provides systems to prevent the delivery of anti-tachycardia pacing (ATP) following a defibrillation threshold (DFT) induction at implant. An algorithm that classifies episodes as induced or spontaneous is implemented, thereby enabling the ATP during charging feature to be operable only when spontaneous episodes are detected while temporarily suspending the ATP feature during the delivery of defibrillation shock after induction has been confirmed. Further, a user interface enables users to interact with an implantable medical device (IMD), particularly for setting a defibrillation threshold (DFT) or a 50 Hz burst from a single programmer screen. The user interface includes various functionalities to promote quick user access to parameters that govern diagnosis, therapy and other features of the IMD. A single screen enables the user to complete automatic and/or manual DFT inductions or a 50 Hz burst from a programmer interface while acquiring associated documentation from the same interface.
