Patient medical devices often have limited resources and most IMDs [implantable medical devices] have tightly-constrained processing, storage, and power resources. Nevertheless, long-term patient medical devices must store up to three to twelve months of patient data between follow-up sessions. Frequently, to maximize available resource utilization, only one set of patient measures are recorded per day and are averaged weekly to compress data storage overhead. As a result, patient follow-up can be artificially restricted by the data actually captured. For instance, the monitoring features enabled by a patient medical device can potentially limit the scope of medical review and evaluation by filtering out transient but medically significant events. 1, record 1, English, - patient%20follow%2Dup

[...] il est souhaitable de mettre en place un suivi des patients en dehors de l'hôpital lorsque cela s'avère possible. La télémédecine qui est une pratique médicale à distance peut faire partie de la solution. La recherche menée ici porte donc sur une analyse des caractéristiques nécessaires d'un système de production et de transmission de données de suivi à distance des patients dans un contexte de télémédecine et leur intégration dans un système d'information pour l'aide à la décision. 1, record 1, French, - suivi%20des%20patients
