In one aspect, the one or more processors are further configured to execute instructions to monitor the telemetry break condition by determining no return errors or bad packets were received by the IMD during the session. Optionally, the one or more processors are further configured to execute instructions to: responsive to determining no return errors or bad packets are received by the IMD during the session, decrement the count of the of the number of sessions in which the IMD is utilized the high power level. Additionally, the one or more processors are configured to execute instructions to adjust the power comprises changing from the high power level to the low power level for the next session in response to starting a pre-determine amount of sessions at the high power level.
In another example, the one or more processors are further configured to execute instructions to establish a communications link, utilize a power corresponding to a session start power, to initiate a current session between an implantable medical device (IMD) and external device by broadcasting an advertisement message during an interval and transitioning into a sleep mode when a connection is not established during the interval.
