    • A method and apparatus for estimating the remaining capacity of a lithium-iodine battery through the nomographic analysis of two or more measurements of battery impedance. In a preferred embodiment, a pacemaker or other implantable medical device is provided with circuitry for periodically measuring the internal impedance of its battery. Each measurement of impedance is stored along with an indication of when such measurement was made. Nomographic analysis, based upon the rated capacity of the battery and the expected internal impedance at various stages of depletion, allows for two or more time-stamped impedance measurements to serve as the basis for an extrapolation to estimate the remaining service life of the implantable medical device. Nomographic analysis may be performed by circuitry contained in the implanted device itself; in the alternative, periodic impedance measurements may be communicated to external processing circuitry via a telemetry channel.

    • A medical device providing a flexible hardware platform to support alternative therapeutic functions is disclosed. In one embodiment, a microprocessor-based pacemaker incorporates a non-volatile ferroelectric random access read/write memory (FRAM) for storing microprocessor instructions defining a pacing algorithm. Information in the FRAM may be re-written after implant of the pacemaker in a patient via the pacemaker's telemetry link, so that the pacemaker's pacing function may be upgraded or replaced without explant of the pacemaker. The non-volatility of the FRAM ensures that the pacing function is not erased if power to the pacemaker is momentarily interrupted. The flexible hardware platform allows a single type of pacemaker to be implanted in patients with varying cardiac conditions and pacing requirements, thus reducing the inventory requirements of hospitals. The pacing function in pacemakers for patients with progressive or otherwise changing medical conditions can be modified in accordance with the patients' changing needs without invasive procedures. Rewriting of the pacing function is carried out separately from conventional modification of mode selection and parameter value programming. Other information, including parameter data, implant data, patient medical data, and device identification data may also be stored in the FRAM.
    • 公开了提供灵活硬件平台以支持替代治疗功能的医疗装置。 在一个实施例中,基于微处理器的起搏器包括用于存储定义起搏算法的微处理器指令的非易失性铁电随机存取读/写存储器(FRAM)。 通过心脏起搏器的遥测连接将起搏器植入患者体内后,FRAM中的信息可能被重新编写,以便可以升高或更换起搏器的起搏功能,而无需起搏器的外植。 FRAM的非挥发性可确保起搏功能暂时中断时起搏功能不会被清除。 灵活的硬件平台允许将单一类型的起搏器植入具有不同心脏状况和起搏要求的患者,从而减少医院的库存需求。 患有进行性或其他变化的病情的患者的起搏器的起搏功能可以根据病人不断变化的需求进行修改,而无需侵入性手术。 起搏功能的重写与常规的模式选择和参数值编程的修改分开进行。 其他信息,包括参数数据,植入物数据,患者医疗数据和设备识别数据也可存储在FRAM中。

    • A method of and apparatus for telemetering both analog and digital data transcutaneously between an implantable medical device and an external receiver, such as between an external programmer and an implantable cardiac pacer. A damped carrier at 175 kilohertz is pulse position modulated by digital data. The data, along with synchronization and identification codes, are positioned into predefined ranges within predefined frames as measured by individual time periods. The data is uniquely identified by the position of a burst of the carrier within the predefined range. An automatically initiated hand shake protocol maintains the link over slight variations in programmer head position with an indicator notifying the operator when repositioning is required. Analog data may be transferred in digital form or alternatively transferred using phase modulation of the carrier bursts. A cyclic redundancy code is used for link error detection.

    • A power transmission and brake assembly for motorcycles and like vehicles wherein a chain driven rear wheel is mounted on a swing arm, is disclosed. An idle sprocket and brake assembly including a first and a second idle sprocket and a brake member such as a brake disk is mounted to rotate about a pivot axle of the swing arm. First and second endless chains interconnect the idle sprocket assembly respectively with an output shaft mounted drive sprocket and a rear wheel sprocket. A brake engaging member, such as a pair of hydraulically actuated brake calipers, is fixedly connected directly or indirectly to the swing arm. The brake engaging member frictionally engages the brake member whenever braking of the chain driven wheel is desired. As a result, a force arises during braking which tends to push the rear wheel downward towards the road surface, and thereby increases the traction of the rear wheel.

    • An automated identification and configuration system for use with an implantable medical device (IMD) is disclosed. The system includes a first communication circuit that is attached to, or otherwise carried by, a detachable component associated with the IMD such as a medical lead. The communication circuit stores data such as model numbers, serial numbers, technical data, and/or calibration information that describes the additional component. This information may be transferred by the first communications circuit to a second communications circuit that is external to the additional component. This transferred data can be used to automatically configure the internal circuitry and connection functions of the IMD to properly interface with, and support, the additional component. For example, the data can be used to automatically adjust amplifier gains or other sensor circuitry, or to configure a connector block to properly couple to the component. The data may further be entered into a patient record on an external programmer, or may be transferred to a central storage location to be generally accessible to health care providers. In one embodiment, the first communication circuit is a passive RF transponder. This first communication circuit may include a receiver as well as a transmitter to allow the circuit to programmably receive data at the time of component manufacture.
