<p>Methods and apparatus are provided for storing intracardiac electrogram (IEGM) and other cardiac data in an implantable cardiac device (10). When a physician wishes to create a cardiac data record containing the IEGM and other cardiac data, the physician directs the cardiac device to store (14) the data on demand. A number of cardiac data records can be stored. Data records may also be stored after a delay period following a predetermined cardiac event. When the implantable cardiac device detects the predetermined cardiac event, the delay period begins. At the expiration of the delay period, the implantable cardiac device stores a cardiac data record. Cardiac data records can also be stored according to a predetermined schedule.</p> |
