Abstract: Systems and methods for mechanically blocking a nerve are provided. The system may comprise a blocking device configured to selectively compress the nerve. The system may also comprise a feedback mechanism configured to measure a response correlating to whether the nerve is blocked. When the blocking device compresses the nerve, a response from the feedback mechanism is received that correlates to the nerve being blocked or unblocked after a period of time.

Abstract: A medical system for obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) treatment includes therapy delivery circuitry configured to output one or more electrical stimulation signals to a tongue of a patient; sensing circuitry configured to sense one or more compound muscle action potential (CMAP) signals, wherein the one or more CMAP signals are generated in response to the delivery of the one or more electrical stimulation signals; and processing circuitry configured to: cause the therapy delivery circuitry to output the one or more electrical stimulation signals to the tongue; receive information indicative of the one or more CMAP signals from the sensing circuitry; determine, based on the one or more CMAP signals, one or more therapeutic stimulation parameters for the OSA treatment; and cause the therapy delivery circuitry to deliver therapeutic electrical stimulation signals according to at least the determined one or more therapeutic stimulation parameters.

Abstract: Systems and methods for wirelessly providing therapy to one or more anatomical elements may comprise a first capsule and a second capsule. The first capsule may be configured to wirelessly transmit instructions to a second capsule and the second capsule may be configured to receive the wirelessly transmitted instructions. The first capsule may receive an activation signal and apply a first current to a first anatomical element. The first capsule may also wirelessly transmit a first set of instructions to the second capsule to cause the second capsule to apply a second current to a second anatomical element.

Abstract: A system is described that includes: a first sensor that measures a glycemic level of a patient; a second sensor that measures at least one of a protein level of the patient, a hormone level of the patient, and an activity level of the patient; a processor that receives inputs from the first sensor and inputs from the second sensor; and memory including data that, when executed by the processor, enables the processor to perform one or more functions. An example of such function(s) include: analyzing the inputs received from the first sensor and the second sensor; determining, based on the analysis, that an electrical treatment is to be applied to the patient, where the electrical treatment includes application of at least one electrical signal to a nervous system of the patient; and causing the electrical treatment to be applied to the nervous system of the patient.

Abstract: A system includes a first electrode, a second electrode, and a suture structure. The first electrode and the second electrode are both coupled to the suture structure. The system may deliver, via the first electrode, electrical stimulation signals to a nerve or nerve branch. The system may sense, via the second electrode, response signals based on delivering the electrical stimulation signals. The system may control parameters associated with delivering the electrical stimulation signals, based on sensing the response signals.
