LATITUDE® Patient Management System

General Information

Vendor		Guidant Corporation
Item		LATITUDE® Patient Management System
Features		LATITUDE Communicator: The in-home monitoring unit automatically and wirelessly reads implantable device information at times specified by the patient’s physician thereby helping drive device follow-up compliance. The Communicator sends the data that it collects to a secure data storage system, which can be accessed by clinicians through a secure web server accessible from any Internet-connected PC. LATITUDE Website: The secure web server provides anytime, anywhere access to the comprehensive Guidant device and patient data collected by the LATITUDE Communicator. The Internet based system provides a digital archive for patient data as well as robust reporting capabilities. Reports can be emailed, printed or saved to a computer or electronic medical record (EMR). Moreover, physicians can schedule when device data downloads occur so they know when to expect patient information to appear on the website. CONTAK RENEWAL 3RF CRT-D: Guidant’s first wireless enabled implantable device is designed for speed and convenience at implant and sets a new standard for heart failure management with the introduction of LATITUDE Active Monitoring. ZOOM LATITUDE Programmer: The wireless programmer is designed to save physicians time with data collection and programming speeds that are three times faster than Guidant’s previous programmer. It also allows removal of the programming wand, traditionally necessary for device communication, from the sterile implant field.
