Abstract

A system and method of quantifying, maintaining and managing the functional status and/or therapy settings of an IMD based on code path metrics is disclosed. The codebase of device firmware modules may be instrumented to obtain tracing data and timing metrics data corresponding to different code paths that may be taken when a device subsystem or associated functionality is accessed or activated. Code path metrics of actual code paths may be analyzed to detect a deviation from baseline code path metrics and generate a corresponding graduated response.
