    Abstract: A lung device for restoring lung elasticity includes fixation members and a connecting member. The fixation member includes a first radially expandable fixation member and a second radially expandable fixation member. The first radially expandable fixation member defines a first profile in an expanded state and a lumen. The second radially expandable fixation member defines a second profile in an expanded state and a lumen. The connecting member extends between and connects the first and second fixation members. The lung elasticity restoring device is capable of reversibly extendable between an inspiration configuration and an expiration configuration, may be extendable to the inspiration configuration, and biased to the expiration configuration by the connecting member.

    Abstract: Embodiments herein relate to implantable systems for cancer treatment and related methods. In an embodiment, an implantable system for cancer treatment is included having a therapy output circuit configured to generate an electrical current for a plurality of electric field therapy electrodes to create one or more electric fields and control circuitry that causes the therapy output circuit to generate the one or more electric fields at frequencies selected from a range of between 10 kHz to 1 MHz within a bodily tissue. The control circuitry can be configured to select between operating in a first mode or a second mode of generating the electrical current for the electric field therapy electrodes based on a minimum electrical field strength threshold, wherein the first mode includes modulating amplitude of the electrical current and the second mode includes duty cycling of the electrical current. Other embodiments are also included herein.

    Abstract: Embodiments herein relate to medical devices and methods for using the same to treat cancerous tumors within a bodily tissue. A medical device system is included having an electric field generating circuit configured to generate one or more electric fields and a control circuit in communication with the electric field generating circuit. The control circuit configured to control delivery of the one or more electric fields from the electric field generating circuit. The system can include two or more electrodes to deliver the electric fields to a site of a cancerous tumor within a patient and a temperature sensor to measure the temperature of tissue at the site of the cancerous tumor. The control circuit can cause the electric field generating circuit to generate one or more electric fields at frequencies selected from a range of between 10 kHz to 1 MHz. Other embodiments are also included herein.
