Embodiments of the invention provide cross-band communications with an implantable medical device. In one embodiment, an implantable medical device to be implanted into a body of a patient comprises one or more sensors configured to monitor physiological condition of the body of the patient; sensor electronics configured to process a signal received from the one or more sensors; a receiver configured to receive information from the external device in a first frequency band; a transmitter configured to sending information to an external device using a second frequency band which is different from the first frequency band; and a power supply. The receiver is powered on continuously when the implantable medical device is implanted into the body of the patient.

L'invention porte sur différentes exécutions d'un système de communication à bandes croisées avec un dispositif médical implantable dans le corps d'un patient. Dans une exécution, le dispositif implantable comporte: un ou des détecteurs de l'état physiologique du corps du patient; l'électronique permettant de traiter les signaux du ou des détecteurs; un récepteur des informations transmises par le dispositif extérieur dans une première bande de fréquence; un émetteur transmettant des informations à un dispositif extérieur sur une deuxième bande de fréquence différente de la première; et une alimentation. Le récepteur est alimenté en continu lorsque le dispositif implantable est en place dans le corps du patient.
