Abstract

A system and method for storing episodic data collected by an implantable medical device. If there are no unallocated storage locations, collected data associated with an episode is stored in locations that are freed from allocations to previous episodes. The least recently allocated of the storage locations allocated to episodes of a lower priority type may be freed first in order to maintain storage of higher priority episodic data. The method and system also allows a specified ratio of stored data allocated to episodes of one priority type to that of another priority type to be maintained.
