    摘要: System and methods for energy adaptive communications between medical devices are disclosed. In one example, a medical device includes a communication module configured to deliver a plurality of pulses to tissue of a patient, where each pulse has an amount of energy. A control module operatively coupled to the communication module, may be configured to, for each delivered pulse, determine whether the delivered pulse produces an unwanted stimulation of the patient and to change the amount of energy of the plurality of pulses over time so as to identify an amount of energy that corresponds to an unwanted stimulation threshold for the pulses. The control module may then set a maximum energy value for communication pulses that is below the unwanted stimulation threshold, and may deliver communication pulses below the maximum energy value during communication with another medical device.

    摘要: An implantable pulse generator includes a device housing containing pulse generator circuitry and a header connected to the device housing. The header includes a core assembly defining first and second lead bore cavities sized for receiving terminal pins of leads, first and second labels, and an outer layer. The first label is printed onto a surface of the core assembly proximate the first lead bore cavity and includes a first color. The second label is printed onto the surface of the core assembly proximate the second lead bore cavity and includes a second color different from the first color. The outer layer is overmolded over the core assembly so as to encapsulate the first and second labels and to allow access to the first and second lead bore cavities.

    摘要: Embodiments herein relate to implantable systems for cancer treatment and related methods. In an embodiment, an implantable system for cancer treatment can be included having a therapy output circuit configured to generate an electrical output for one or more electrodes to create one or more electric fields. The implantable system can include control circuitry that causes the therapy output circuit to generate the one or more electric fields at frequencies between 10 kHz and 1 MHz within a bodily tissue. The one or more electric fields can be effective to prevent and./or disrupt cellular mitosis in a cell. The implantable system can further include a therapy zone temperature sensor. The implantable system can be configured to measure the temperature and/or record the temperature data of a patient over time. The temperature data can include tissue temperature and time stamps of the same. Other embodiments are also included herein.
