摘要： Disclosed is an improved external controller useable in an implantable medical device system. The communication coil in the external controller is formed in a printed circuit board (PCB), i.e., by using the various tracing layers and vias of the PCB. As illustrated, the PCB coil is formed at a plurality of trace layers in the PCB, and comprises a plurality of turns at some or all of the layers. The communication coil may wrap around the other circuitry used in the external controller, which circuitry may be mounted to the front and/or back of the PCB. The geometry of the coil is specially tailored to maximize its inductance, and hence maximize its ability to communicate in the sub-4 MHz range which is not significantly attenuated by the human body.

摘要： An improved integrated external controller/charger system useable with an implantable medical device is disclosed. The system comprises two main components: an external controller and an external charging coil assembly that is coupleable thereto. When the external charging coil assembly is coupled to the external controller, the system can be used to both send and receive data telemetry to and from the implantable medical device, and to send power to the device. Specifically, the external controller controls data telemetry by energizing at least one coil within the external controller, and the external controller controls power transmission by energizing a charging coil in the external charging coil assembly, which is otherwise devoid of its own control, power, and user interface. The result is a cheaper, simpler, more compact, and more convenient data telemetry and charging solution for the patient having a medical implant.

摘要： A base station for passively recharging a battery in an implant without patient involvement is disclosed. The base station can be hand held or may comprise equipment configured to be placed at a fixed location, such as under a bed, on or next to a wall, etc. The base station can generate electric and magnetic fields (E- field and B-field) that couple with an antenna and a receiving coil within the implant to generate a charging current for charging the implant's battery. No handling or manipulation on part of the patient is necessary; the implant battery is passively charged whenever the patient is within range of either the magnetic or electric charging fields generated by base station. Charging using the B-field occurs when the IPG is at a relatively short distance from the base station, while charging using the E-field occurs at longer distances. Back telemetry from the implant can inform the base station whether B-field or E-field charging is indicated, and is preferred if possible for its ability to transfer higher amounts of power to the implant.
摘要翻译：公开了一种用于在植入物中无源地给电池充电而无需患者参与的基站。基站可以是手持式的，或者可以包括被配置为放置在固定位置处的设备，例如在床下面，墙上或旁边等。基站可以产生电场和磁场（E场和B场场），其与植入物内的天线和接收线圈耦合以生成用于给植入物的电池充电的充电电流。部分患者不需要操作或操作; 无论何时患者处于由基站产生的磁场或电荷场的范围内，植入物电池都被动充电。当IPG距离基站相对较短的距离时，使用B场进行充电，而使用电场进行充电的距离较远。来自种植体的背部遥测可以通知基站是否指示B场或电场充电，并且如果可能的话，由于其向植入物传递更大量的功率的能力是优选的。

摘要： To recharge an implanted medical device, an external device, typically in the form of an inductive charger, is placed over the implant to provide for transcutaneous energy transfer. The external charging device can be powered by a rechargeable battery. Since the battery is in close proximity to the charge coil, the large magnetic field produced by the charge coil induces eddy currents that flow on the battery's metallic case, often resulting in undesirable heating of the battery and reduced efficiency of the charger. This disclosure provides a means of shielding the battery from the magnetic field to reduce eddy current heating, thereby increasing efficiency. In one embodiment, the magnetic shield consists of one or more thin ferrite plates. The use of a ferrite shield allows the battery to be placed directly over the charge coil as opposed to outside the extent of the charge coil.
摘要翻译：为了对植入的医疗装置充电，通常以感应充电器的形式的外部装置放置在植入物上以提供经皮能量转移。外部充电装置可以由可充电电池供电。由于电池靠近充电线圈，由充电线圈产生的大磁场引起在电池金属壳体上流动的涡流，经常导致电池的不期望的加热并降低充电器的效率。本公开提供了一种屏蔽电池免受磁场的影响，以减少涡流加热，从而提高效率。在一个实施例中，磁屏蔽由一个或多个薄铁氧体板组成。铁氧体屏蔽的使用允许电池直接放置在充电线圈上方，而不是在充电线圈的范围之外。

摘要： An improved external charger for a battery in an implantable medical device (implant), and technique for charging batteries in multiple implants using such improved external charger, is disclosed. During charging, values for a parameter measured in the implants are reported from the implants to the external charger. The external charger infers from the magnitudes of the parameters which of the implants has the highest and lowest coupling to the external charger, and so designates those implants as "hot" and "cold." The intensity of the magnetic charging field is optimized for the cold implant consistent with the simulation to ensure that that the cold implant is charged with a maximum (fastest) battery charging current. The duty cycle of the magnetic charging field is also optimized for the hot implant consistent with the simulation to ensure that the hot implant does not exceed the power dissipation limit. As a result, charging is optimized to be fast for all of the implants, while still safe from a tissue heating perspective.

摘要翻译：公开了一种用于可植入医疗装置（植入物）中的电池的改进的外部充电器，以及使用这种改进的外部充电器为多个植入物中的电池充电的技术。在充电期间，在植入物中测量的参数的值从植入物报告给外部充电器。外部充电器从参数的大小推断出植入物具有最高和最低耦合到外部充电器的参数，因此将这些植入物称为“热”和“冷”。对于与模拟一致的冷植入物，磁充电场的强度被优化，以确保冷植入物以最大（最快）的电池充电电流充电。对于与模拟一致的热注入，磁充电场的占空比也被优化，以确保热植入不超过功率耗散极限。因此，对于所有植入物，充电被优化为快速，同时从组织加热的角度来看仍然是安全的。

摘要： A system and method that provides an integrated circuit which includes a small on-chip buffer to store collected data, thereby shifting the burden of storing the majority of the collected data to external system memory, which is typically comprised of commodity memory chips. Since this external system memory is already in use by other system functions, utilizing such unused regions of this external memory increases overall hardware efficiency, while achieving lower ASIC manufacturing cost.

摘要： An implantable medical device and external base station system are disclosed. The external base station can provide a passive electric field to power the implant, or to charge its battery. The base station may also power or charge using magnetic fields under certain circumstances. The Implantable medical device may comprise an implantable neurostimulator having a number of electrode leads extending from its body. One or more of the electrode leads can comprise the antenna for receiving the electric field from the base station, and resonance in that antenna can be rectified to provide the power for recharging the battery. Although the E-field provided by the base station does not provide as much power for recharging as does other traditional charging techniques (such as those using magnetic fields), it can occur passively and over longer distances to allow the patent's implant to be recharged when in relative proximity to the base station.
