Abstract
An external programming system and method for implantable medical devices (IMDs) is disclosed. The external programming system includes a communication circuit, a display device, an input device, and a processor. The communication circuit is configured to link to an IMD to transmit or monitor IMD timing parameter settings. The display device is configured to display a textual representation of an IMD timing parameter setting and a specified IMD timing parameter limit, a graphical slide control comprising a movable feature indicating the IMD timing parameter setting, a graphical slide-control limit corresponding to the specified IMD timing parameter limit, and a graphical representation of physiologic information including a portion of said graphical representation aligned with the slide control movable feature. The input device is configured to adjust the movable feature in response to user input. The processor is configured to monitor or store an IMD timing parameter setting.
