Abstract: A system that includes a movement sensor configured to be implanted within a patient and generate a movement signal and processing circuitry configured to be implanted within the patient and configured to: receive the movement signal from the movement sensor and determine that the movement signal is representative of a communication from the patient. Responsive to determining that the movement signal is representative of the communication, the processing circuitry may cause an alert associated with the communication to be output to the patient. The processing circuitry may also perform an action requested by the communication.

Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices for wireless signal transmission are described. A fractal antenna may be utilized to wirelessly communicate with a transmitter implanted within or located external to the patient. The fractal antenna may be implanted within the patient and may be coupled with a lead also implanted within the patient. The characteristics of the fractal antenna may allow for enhanced data transmission between the antenna and the transmitter while reducing the need for implanted wires to connect the transmitter and leads.

Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices for medical imaging are described. Examples may include an augmented reality (AR) server receiving a set of medical imaging data acquired by at least a first imaging modality. The set of medical imaging data may include a visual representation of a biological structure of a body. Next, the medical imaging data can be used to render an isolated anatomical model of a least a portion of the biological structure. The isolated anatomical model can be received by an AR viewing device such as AR glasses. The AR viewing device may display on a display of the AR viewing device, a first view perspective of the isolated anatomical model in a first orientation. The first orientation may be based on a position of the first AR viewing device relative to the body. Examples include displaying a virtual position of the medical instrument in the AR viewing device.

Abstract: A patient data exchange system comprises at least one device. Each of the devices implements an interface. When a device in the patient data exchange system publishes patient data, the device generates a metadata envelope that encapsulates the patient data. The metadata envelope conforms to a schema that defines allowable metadata attributes of the metadata envelope. When a device in the patient data exchange system receives a metadata envelope that conforms to the schema, the device determines, based at least in part on a metadata attribute of the metadata envelope, a particular patient data handling policy to apply to patient data encapsulated by the metadata envelope. In some instances, the metadata attribute indicates that authorization is required from an authorization service to access the patient data encapsulated by the metadata envelope.

Abstract: An implantable medical device that includes a memory, stimulation circuitry configured to deliver electrical stimulation to a patient, and processing circuitry operably coupled to the memory. The processing circuitry is configured to: control the stimulation circuitry to output electrical stimulation therapy to a patient via a first electrode combination and control the stimulation circuitry to output a notification stimulation via a second electrode combination and interleaved with the electrical stimulation therapy. The notification stimulation may include an intensity above a perception level of the patient, and the second electrode combination may include an electrode disposed at an implant site of the implantable medical device.

Abstract: In some examples, a prosthesis system comprises a socket housing comprising a socket configured to receive a residual limb of a wearer. The socket housing further comprising a pylon extending distally of the socket. The socket housing further comprising a first interlock structure at a distal end of the pylon where the first interlock structure comprises a first one or more programmed magnets. The prosthesis system further comprising an extremity unit configured to be attached to and removed from the pylon where the extremity unit comprises a second interlock structure comprising a second one or more programmed magnets. The pylon and the extremity unit are configured such that, when the extremity unit is attached to the pylon, the first and second one or more programmed magnets are positioned and oriented to magnetically attract each other and secure the extremity unit to the pylon.

Abstract: In one example of the present disclosure, a system may be configured with a prosthetic liner configured to be worn over a residual limb of a user where the prosthetic liner comprises a first one or more programmed magnets. The system may be further configured with a prosthesis comprising a prosthetic socket configured to receive the residual limb and the prosthetic liner where the prosthetic socket comprises a second one or more programmed magnets. The first one or more programmed magnets are magnetically attracted to and repelled by corresponding ones of the second one or more programmed magnets when the prosthetic liner is received within the prosthetic socket.

Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices for creating a model of a medical device for use in an extended reality (XR) system are described. The method may include receiving a three-dimensional model of the medical device, where the three-dimensional model is represented by a plurality of vectors. The method may further include reducing a number of the plurality of vectors to at least below a maximum vector count threshold while maintaining at least a minimum model resolution threshold. In some cases, the method may include assigning one or more components to the reduced number of the plurality of vectors. The method may further include configuring a software-executable file for displaying an XR version of the three-dimensional model of the medical device.
