摘要： An interactive implantable medical device system includes an implantable medical device and a network-enabled external device capable of bi-directional communication and interaction with the implantable medical device. The external device is programmed to interact with other similarly-enabled devices. The system facilitates improved patient care by eliminating unnecessary geographic limitations on implantable medical device interrogation and programming, and by allowing patients, physicians, and other users to access medical records, history, and information and to receive status and care-related alerts and messages anywhere there is access to a communications network.

摘要： Described here are implantable devices and methods for monitoring physiological information relating to sleep. The implantable devices are generally designed to include at least one sensor for sensing physiological information, a processor for processing the physiological information using low computational power to detect a sleep stage, and a battery. The detected sleep stage information may then be used to indicate sleep quality, identify or monitor a medical condition, or guide treatment thereof.

摘要： Disclosed is a medical device susceptible of identification using interference patterns. A source signal may be directed from an energy source towards the surface of a device for reflection therefrom. An interference pattern may be detected from the surface of the device, such as by a sensor. A determination as to whether a match exists between the representation of the interference pattern and a stored representation of an interference pattern may be performed. If a match exists, the device may be identified based on the stored representation of the interference pattern. Otherwise, a representation of the interference pattern may be stored and a unique identifier may be assigned to the stored representation of the interference pattern.

摘要： An epileptiform activity patient-specific template creation system permits a user to efficiently develop an optimized set of patient-specific parameters for epileptiform activity detection algorithms. The epileptiform activity patient template creation system is primarily directed for use with an implantable neurostimulator system having EEG storage capability, in conjunction with a computer software program operating within a computer workstation having a processor, disk storage and input/output facilities for storing, processing and displaying patient EEG signals. The implantable neurostimulator is operative to store records of EEG data when neurological events are detected, when it receives external commands to record, or at preset or random times. The computer workstation operates on stored and uploaded records of EEG data to derive the patient-specific templates.

摘要： This is directed to an implantable multimodal neurostimulator having improved efficacy in treating epilepsy and other neurological disorders and to processes of using that neurostimulator. The neurostimulator itself generally has two modes of electrical stimulation: the first involves delivering a non-responsive electrical stimulation signal which is applied to the central nervous system to reduce the likelihood of a seizure or other undesirable neurological even from occurring, and a second mode that involves delivering electrical stimulation signal or signals when epileptiform waveforms are impending or extant. The responsive electrical stimulation signal or signals are intended to terminate epileptiform activity, e.g., to desynchronize abnormally synchronous brain electrical activity. Alternatively, the second mode may be used to deliver sensory stimulation, e.g., a scalp or sound stimulation, to the patient rather than deliver electrical stimulation to the patient. Finally, the implanted neurostimulator may be used by a physician to induce epileptiform activity and then verify the effectiveness of the parameters of the first and second neurostimulation signal or signals.

摘要： Disclosed is a means and method for placing an implantable neurostimulator control module into a place in the cranium where cranial bone has been removed. The method for accomplishing this cranial implantation is by first removing a patient's hair over the site of the implant, then cutting the scalp at that site and pulling it back to expose the cranium. A neurosurgeon would then remove a portion of the cranial bone to accept a control module to be implanted within that hole. The control module would then be placed into that hole. It is also conceived that the control module would be fixed in place by the use of one or more attachment devices such as a multiplicity of bone screws placed through holes in one or more flanges that extend over the cranium beyond the control module. The implantation could also include a fairing placed around the control module to provide a smooth contour under the patient's scalp. Also described is a spacer shim placed under the flange(s) to adjust the position of the control module so that its bottom surface does not put pressure on the dura mater lying directly over the brain tissue at the bottom of the hole. It is also envisioned that a resorbable disk could be placed under the bottom surface of the control module to further protect the brain and/or to elute an anti-biotic or anti-inflammatory substance to reduce the possibility of infection and/or inflammation.
摘要翻译：公开了一种用于将可植入的神经刺激器控制模块放置在颅骨已被移除的头颅中的位置的手段和方法。完成这种颅骨植入的方法是首先将患者的头发去除植入物的部位，然后在该部位切割头皮并将其拉回以暴露颅骨。然后，神经外科医生将去除颅骨的一部分以接受待植入该孔内的控制模块。然后将控制模块放入该孔中。还可以想到，控制模块将通过使用一个或多个附接装置固定在适当的位置，例如通过一个或多个凸缘中的孔布置的多个骨螺钉，所述多个骨螺钉在颅骨上延伸超过控制模块。植入还可以包括放置在控制模块周围的整流罩，以在患者的头皮下面提供平滑的轮廓。还描述了放置在凸缘下方的间隔垫片，以调节控制模块的位置，使得其底部表面不对直接位于孔底部的脑组织的硬脑膜施加压力。还可以设想，可再吸收的盘可以放置在控制模块的底表面下方以进一步保护大脑和/或洗脱抗生素或抗炎物质以减少感染和/或炎症的可能性。
