Abstract

A biomedical system such as a pacemaker system having an implantable pacemaker and external apparatus, with communications capability for communicating between the implanted device and the external apparatus, characterized by the implanted device having means for cyclically transmitting event and device timing data representative of each prior device interval, the external apparatus having means for receiving and storing the data and for graphically constructing a graphic output representative of the timing and event information over a plurality of device cycles. Graphic output preferably includes a linear timing graph representative of timing functions of the implanted device.
