    Abstract: A nerve interface device including at least one cuff portion having an assembled position in which the cuff portion forms at least part of a passageway for receiving a nerve along a longitudinal axis passing through the passageway; and first and second rings of electrodes mounted on the at least one cuff portion, each ring of electrodes including a plurality of electrodes. Each electrode in the first ring has a corresponding longitudinally-aligned electrode in the second ring so as to form a plurality of pairs of electrodes spaced apart from each other along the longitudinal axis. The plurality of pairs of electrodes includes at least a first pair of electrodes, the first pair of electrodes mounted on the at least one cuff portion. The at least one cuff portion includes an asymmetric configuration about a central axis perpendicular to the longitudinal cuff axis.

    Abstract: A device that is implantable in body tissue of a human or animal. The device is comprised of a header comprising at least one terminal adapted for removable connection to a lead and an open ended case closed by a plate to form a housing. The housing is comprised of a surrounding edge wall joined to a first side wall and a second side wall opposed to the first side wall. At least a first suture port extends through the edge wall and the second side wall but not the first side wall at an upper edge region of the housing. A second suture port may extend through the surrounding edge wall and the second side wall but not the first side wall in a similar manner. A third suture port may extend through the header. The three suture ports may define a triangular attachment configuration.

    Abstract: An extravascular or intravascular neural interface is disclosed comprising three C-ring portions, with at least two including an electrode, an electrode pair or an electrode array. The portions are formed of a flexible material that is configured to enable the portions to self-size to fit around or against a surface of a target vessel when the neural interface is released at a position along the target vessel. A spinal portion configured to house electrical conductors for the electrodes is connected to one or more portions. The portions may be spaced sufficient apart to permit radial expansion and contraction of a target vessel around or within which the neural interface is placed, to reduce never compression, open trench low-pressure unrestricted blood-flow, and to enhance fluid exchange with the target vessel. The portions may be arranged in a low helix angle forming at least two full turns.

    Abstract: Stents for intravascular neural stimulation are disclosed herein that at least partially contact a vessel wall. The stent comprises a scaffold extending in a longitudinal direction and having an outer perimeter that at least partially contacts the wall. A pulse generator can generate electrical signals for delivery to a nerve for intravascular neural stimulation. The scaffold has mounted thereon a first set of one or more electrodes electrically coupled to the pulse generator. The stent further comprises a second set of one or more electrodes electrically coupled to the pulse generator. The second set of electrodes is unconnected to the scaffold, i.e. not directly mounted on the scaffold. Methods of implanting a stent into a vessel using a deployment catheter are disclosed herein. The stent to be implanted comprises a pulse generator, a scaffold, and a distal set of one or more electrodes electrically coupled to the pulse generator. The distal set of electrodes is unconnected to the scaffold, i.e. not directly mounted on the scaffold. The method comprises positioning a distal end of the deployment catheter at the intravascular location, advancing the stent within the deployment catheter, further advancing the stent to expose the one or more electrodes of the distal set of one or more electrodes outside of, preferably beyond the deployment catheter, providing an electrical stimulation via the exposed electrodes, and withdrawing the stent within the deployment catheter.
