Abstract
Embodiments described herein can reduce a burden associated with analyzing EGM segments obtained from an IMD that monitors for arrhythmic episodes. Respective EGM data and respective classification data is obtained for each arrhythmic episode detected by the IMD during a period of time. A representative R-R interval or HR for each of the arrhythmic episodes is also obtained, wherein a manner for determining the representative R-R interval or HR depends on the type of the arrhythmic episode, such that for at least two different types of arrhythmic episodes the manners differ. One or more arrhythmic episodes is/are selected for which corresponding EGM segments are to be displayed for each type of arrhythmic episode, wherein the selecting is performed based on the representative R-R intervals or HRs that are determined for the plurality of arrhythmic episodes. Additional and alternative embodiments are also described herein.
