An improved embodiment of an external device for an implantable medical device system is described herein, where the external device has both circuitry for charging the implantable medical device and circuitry for telemetering data to and from the medical implant contained within a single housing. The external device in one embodiment includes orthogonal radiators in which both the radiators are used for data transfer, and in which at least one of the radiators is used for power transfer. Having charging and data telemetry circuitry fully integrated within a single external device conveniences both patient and clinician.

L'invention concerne un mode de réalisation amélioré d'un dispositif externe pour système de dispositif médical implantable, le dispositif externe comprenant à la fois, contenues dans un boîtier unique, une circuiterie destinée à charger le dispositif médical implantable et une circuiterie destinée à la télémétrie de données vers et en provenance de l'implant médical. Dans un mode de réalisation, le dispositif externe comprend des radiateurs orthogonaux, les deux radiateurs étant utilisés pour le transfert de données et au moins un des radiateurs étant utilisé pour le transfert d'énergie. L'intégration de la circuiterie de charge et de télémétrie de données au sein d'un dispositif externe unique est commode à la fois pour le patient et pour le clinicien.
