16.6. REMOTE MONITORING FUNCTION
Remote monitoring enables the automatic remote transmission of
implant data to the physician thanks to the wireless Radio Frequency
(RF) communication ability of the implant in order to provide a
comprehensive report to the physician about device functioning and
patient cardiac status without having the patient physically in the
clinic.
The data is transmitted from the implant and the SMARTVIEW
monitor, a small transmitter placed in the patient home.
Implant data are first transmitted to the SMARTVIEW monitor via RF.
Data are then rooted through the phone network to an internet
website. This website is responsible for transforming the implant data
into a comprehensive report that can be consulted by the physician.
 SMARTVIEW Monitor
The SMARTVIEW monitor is a small device equipped with an RF
transmission module to communicate with the implant and a modem
to export data through the internet.
The SMARTVIEW monitor is delivered to the patient who has to
install it at home. Preferably the SMARTVIEW monitor will be placed
on the nightstand of the patient, as close as possible to the side of
the bed the patient usually sleeps. The SMARTVIEW monitor shall
be connected to the phone network and the power plug. Regular
transmissions are done during the night when the patient is asleep
next to the SMARTVIEW monitor without any intervention from the
patient.
