1. A system for managing and reviewing data obtained from an implantable device, the system comprising:
an implantable pump configured to be implanted in a patient and to move fluid from a first body cavity to a second body cavity, the implantable pump comprising a plurality of sensors configured to generate operational data indicative of pump operation or physiological data corresponding to the patient or both;
a charging device configured to wirelessly transfer energy transcutaneously to the implantable pump and programmed to communicate with the implantable pump to receive the operational data or the physiological data or both from the implantable pump;
first instructions stored on a first non-transitory computer readable medium of the charging device configured to cause transmission of the operational data or the physiological data or both from the charging device to a remote computing device; and
second instructions stored on a second non-transitory computer readable medium of the remote computing device configured to cause the remote computing device to access the operational data or the physiological data or both from the charging device and determine whether the physiological data or the operational data or both exceeds one or more preprogrammed thresholds, and automatically generate an alert if the physiological data or the operational data or both exceeds the one or more preprogrammed thresholds,
wherein the second instructions are further configured to cause the remote computing device to determine operational parameters for the implantable pump based on second physiological data or second operational data or both corresponding to a second implantable pump.
 
13. A system for managing and reviewing data obtained from an implantable device, the system comprising:
an implantable pump configured to be implanted in a patient and to move fluid from a first body cavity to a second body cavity, the implantable pump comprising a plurality of sensors configured to generate operational data indicative of pump or physiological data corresponding to the patient or both;
a charging device configured to wirelessly transfer energy transcutaneously to the implantable pump and to communicate with the implantable device to receive a warning message from the implantable device;
first instructions stored on a non-transitory computer readable medium of the implantable device configured to cause the implantable device to determine whether the physiological data or operational data or both exceeds one or more preprogrammed thresholds, and automatically generate the warning message if the physiological data or operational data or both exceeds the one or more preprogrammed thresholds and cause transmission of the physiological data or operational data or both and the warning message to the charging device; and
second instructions stored on a non-transitory computer readable medium of the charging device configured to receive the physiological data or operational data or both and the warning message and cause wireless transmission of the physiological data or operational data or both and warning message to a remote computing device,
wherein the second instructions are further configured to cause the remote computing device to determine operational parameters for the implantable pump based on second physiological data or second operational data or both corresponding to a second implantable pump.
