    摘要: A neuromodulation system for treating epilepsy provides therapeutic elements for modulating nerve activity to prevent or diminish (e.g., through reduced intensity or shortened duration) epileptic seizures. The therapeutic elements may be positioned in the vasculature of the patient or on the skin of the patient and are energized to modulate nerve fibers positioned outside the vascular walls. Electrode positions may include the surface of the hand and/or arm, or blood vessels within the hand and/or arm such as the vena comitans of the ulnar artery, the vena comitans of the radial arteries, the ulnar artery, or the radial artery. Alternative electrode positions are beneath the skin of the hand or arm but external to the blood vessels. Target nerves include the median nerve, radial nerve, ulnar nerve and/or branches thereof.

    摘要: A method and system are provided for determining a location of a satellite radio receiver and directing advertisements to the satellite radio receiver based on its current location. The current location of the satellite radio receiver is determined through communication with a wireless mobile device and a wireless communications network where the wireless mobile device is located in close proximity to the satellite radio receiver. Once a location is determined, a database of satellite radio advertisements is searched to identify advertisements directed towards a specific location, and these advertisements are transmitted to the satellite radio receiver across a satellite radio network.

    摘要: A method for the assessment of neuromuscular function by the detection and classification of late wave activity, comprising: (i) pre-processing an ensemble of traces so as to attenuate noise, PFI and baseline disturbances; (ii) identifying time segments of late wave activity in the ensemble of traces; (iii) classifying the time segments of late wave activity into F-wave, A-wave and Repeater segments by exploiting the variable morphology of F-waves across the traces and the fixed morphology of A-waves and Repeater waves across the traces; and (iv) searching the traces in the vicinity of the F-wave trace segments on a trace-by-trace basis so as to identify the F-wave onset latency.
