Abstract

An interrogation system for a medical device includes a memory storing a diagnostic algorithm, a processor configured to run the diagnostic algorithm, and a communication module configured to facilitate data transfer between the interrogation system and the medical device. The diagnostic algorithm is configured to reach a diagnostic conclusion based on data from the medical device. The diagnostic algorithm is configured to iteratively interrogate the medical device for the data from the medical device until the diagnostic algorithm reaches the diagnostic conclusion, each iterative interrogation requesting additional data as compared to prior iterations. The communication module is configured to receive the additional data from the medical device in response to each iterative interrogation. The diagnostic algorithm is further configured to store an indication of the diagnostic conclusion within the memory.
