    摘要: Techniques for stimulating the brain (B) to treat movement disorders resulting in abnormal motor behavior by means of an implantable signal generator (10) and electrode (115). A sensor (130) is used to detect the symptoms resulting from the motion disorders. A microprocessor algorithm anaylzes the output from the sensor in order to regulate the stimulation delivered to the brain.

    摘要: The present invention discloses techniques for warning a patient of a possible onset of a seizure using a sensor, a signal generator and at least one implantable electrode. The electrodes are positioned to stimulate the spinal cord or under the skin. The sensor senses a parameter of the body indicative of the possible onset of a seizure. The sensor generates a sensing signal which is processed and an algorithm is utilized to determine whether the sensing signal shows a pattern indicative of a possible seizure onset. If such a pattern is recognized, the signal generator provides electrical stimulation via electrodes to generate a sensory stimulus to the body. The stimulation may provide visual, aural or touch stimulus to the patient. The patient is thereby alerted to the possibility of a seizure onset and may take appropriate action.

    摘要: An implantable cardioverter for providing cardioversion electrical energy to at least one chamber of a patient's heart in need of cardioversion and applying a pain alleviating therapy at an appropriate site in the patient's body prior to or in conjunction with the delivery of the cardioversion energy to the heart chamber to alleviate propagated pain perceived by the patient. The combined cardioversion and pain alleviating therapies are preferably realized in a single implantable, multi-programmable medical device or separate implantable cardioversion and pain control devices with means for communicating operating and status commands between the devices through the patient's body.

    摘要: A characteristic of a washout period following the delivery of therapy to a patient according to a therapy program may be determined based on a physiological parameter of the patient. A washout period includes the period of time during which a carryover effect from the therapy dissipates. The washout period characteristic may include, for example, a duration of the washout period, an amplitude or a trend in a physiological signal during the washout period or a power level or a ratio of power levels in frequency bands of the physiological signal. In some embodiments, washout period characteristics associated with a plurality of therapy programs may be used to compare the programs. In other embodiments, a washout period characteristic may be used to determine a mood state of the patient and, in some cases, modify a therapy program. Monitoring a washout period may also be useful for timing therapy program trials.

    摘要: Techniques using one or more drugs and electrical stimulation for treating a neurological disorder, including epilepsy, by means of an implantable signal generator and electrode and an implantable pump and catheter. A sensor is used to detect a seizure or symptoms resulting from the onset of a seizure. A microprocessor algorithm analyzes the output from the sensor in order to regulate the stimulation and drug dosage delivered to the neural tissue.
