Patent №: 12133985 (November 5, 2024) – Far field telemetry communication with a medical device during a recharge session where a prior pairing with the medical device may not exist.
During recharge sessions, far-field telemetry communication can occur between an external device and an implantable medical device, even if they haven’t been previously paired.

During recharge sessions, far-field telemetry communication can occur between an external device and an implantable medical device, even if they haven’t been previously paired. Temporary bonding allows these devices to connect solely for the recharge session, while the implantable device may maintain a separate programming bond with another external device. Safeguards prevent unintended programming connections between external devices and implantable devices not bonded to them.
