摘要： A communication system is provided for a patient featuring a cushion with an opening for receiving the face of the patient. The cushion includes a microphone for receiving audible signals from the patient and one or more speakers for delivering audible signals to the patient. The microphone and speaker(s) are integrated with the cushion to avoid interfering with the comfort of the patient. In one embodiment, the audible signals are delivered to and from the patient via a communication port. In another embodiment, the system includes a display device, so the patient may view parts of the patient's body on the device and then communicate with system operators through the microphone and speaker(s).
摘要翻译：为患者提供通信系统，其特征在于具有用于接收患者面部的开口的缓冲垫。垫子包括用于从患者接收听觉信号的麦克风和用于向患者传递可听信号的一个或多个扬声器。麦克风和扬声器与衬垫集成，以避免干扰患者的舒适度。在一个实施例中，可听信号经由通信端口传递给患者和从患者传送。在另一个实施例中，系统包括显示装置，因此患者可以在装置上观察患者身体的部分，然后通过麦克风和扬声器与系统操作者通信。

摘要： A burr hole sealing device for preventing brain shift during a stimulation lead implantation procedure is provided. The device includes a suction cup ring and a self-sealing membrane positioned within the aperture of the ring. The sealing device is attached adjacent to a burr hole and over a dura layer that is exposed in the bottom of the burr hole. The stimulation lead is disposed through the burr hole, through the membrane, through the dura layer and into brain tissue. The membrane is configured to allow the lead to pass therethrough while maintaining a tight seal around the diameter of the lead, thereby hindering leakage of cerebrospinal fluid out of the cranial cavity and maintaining a substantially fixed intracranial pressure. In one embodiment, the sealing device includes a syringe for adding fluid to, or removing fluid from, the cranial cavity in response to a detected change in intracranial pressure.

摘要： Systems for treating a patient with a medical condition include a lead having an array of electrode contacts each being programmable to have either a first polarity or a second polarity and a programming device configured to test a multiplicity of different electrode contact polarity configurations in which a programmed polarity of one or more of the electrode contacts is varied. Methods of using an implantable stimulator system include implanting a lead having an array of programmable electrode contacts disposed thereon in communication with a stimulation site, testing a multiplicity of different electrode contact polarity configurations in which a programmed polarity of one or more of the electrode contacts is varied, selecting an optimal electrode contact polarity configuration out of the multiplicity of different electrode contact polarity configurations, and applying the stimulation current via the optimal electrode contact polarity configuration to the stimulation site in accordance with one or more stimulation parameters.

摘要： A system and method for applying stimulation to a target stimulation site within a patient, while avoiding undesirable eye movement side effects of the stimulation, are provided. The method includes determining whether eye movement, sensed by internal or external electrodes, is a side effect of a conveyed electrical stimulus. If the eye movement is a side effect, the electrical current distribution of the stimulus is modified in order to steer a locus of the electrical stimulus from one tissue region of the patient to another different tissue region of the patient, thereby mitigating the eye movement side effects. For example, the locus of the electrical stimulus may be steered away from the oculomotor nerve. Eye movement side effects of DBS treatment may include apraxia of lid opening, downward movement and adduction of only one eyeball, and/or continuous deviation of both eyeballs.
摘要翻译：提供了一种用于将刺激应用于患者内的目标刺激部位同时避免刺激的不期望的眼睛运动副作用的系统和方法。该方法包括确定由内部或外部电极感测的眼睛运动是否是所传送的电刺激的副作用。如果眼睛运动是副作用，则刺激的电流分布被修改以便将电刺激的轨迹从患者的一个组织区域引导到患者的另一不同组织区域，从而减轻眼睛运动侧效果。例如，电刺激的轨迹可以被转向离开眼动神经。 DBS治疗的眼睛运动副作用可能包括盖开口的不适，仅有一只眼球的向下运动和内收，和/或两只眼球的连续偏差。
