Re: Eyeballing the President's Defibrillator

IF President Bush has been wearing the LifeVest defibrillator -- a possible source of the Bush bulge in the debates (since it can't be miniaturized like a receiver or bug) -- he likely is uploading his ECG to a physician on a weekly basis via this link:

https://wcdnet.lifecor.com/wcd/

This is a secure web-based data storage and retrieval system known as WCDNET (Wearable Cardioverter Defibrillator NET) which allows physicians to access patient data stored in the Patient Database using a web browser and Internet connection. Only authorized users registered by LIFECOR and a password and can access WCDNET. In addition, the data transferred over the Internet is encrypted. An authorized physician or operator can view and print ECG events and generate reports related to patient wear time compliance and overall WCD 2000 monitoring performance.

Typically, once a week the physician will want the patient to connect their monitor to the LifeVest modem to send their heart monitoring data over the phone to the physician's computer for his review.
