摘要： A cap for an implantable medical device electrical connector lead assembly and methods of use. A cap for protecting an electrical connector lead assembly of an implantable medical device is disclosed. The cap includes a body defined by a mating surface and a non-mating surface. The mating surface is adapted for electrically insulating engagement with an electrical connector lead assembly of an implantable medical device. The cap includes a body having a mating surface and an electrical network disposed therein. The electrical network includes first and second contacts exposed at the mating surface, a first circuit element, and two conductive pathways connecting the contacts to the circuit element. The body is configured to mate with the electrical connector lead assembly such that each contact conductively engages a corresponding contact of the electrical connector lead assembly when the cap and electrical connector lead assembly are mated.

摘要： An endoluminal prosthesis for deployment in a body which has a first tubular structure for stabilising the prosthesis, the first tubular structure being substantially concentric about a first axis and movable between a compact and an expanded state. The prosthesis also has a second tubular structure for supporting an artificial heart valve, the second tubular structure being substantially concentric about a second axis and moveable between a compact and an expanded state. The first axis and the second axis extend at different angles when the first and second structures are in the compact and/or expanded state. A third structure which is shape and/or length adjustable is positioned between the first and second structures.

摘要： A multi-purpose FES system includes a multi-function, implantable stimulator for stimulating different sites in a patient's body. The stimulator includes a control unit and a receiving device. The stimulator further has a plurality of bundles of electric leads connected to the control unit, each lead terminating in at least one electrode to provide a plurality of discrete groups of electrodes associated with each site. Each group of electrodes is operable to stimulate its associated site in the patient's body, under the action of stimulation signals from the control unit, the control unit receiving signals from the receiving device. A transmitter is arranged externally of the patient's body for supplying signals transcutaneously to the receiving device of the stimulator. A controller is in communication with the transmitter via a communications interface unit.

摘要： An implantable sensor for monitoring the condition of an organ, such as the bladder, of a recipients' body. The sensor (100) comprises a carrier (102), such as a tubular housing that is attachable to the outer surface of the organ. An impedance-varying means (104), such as a saline solution, is carried by the carrier (102). The impedance-varying means (104) within the carrier varies as the condition of the organ changes to cause in output state of the sensor (100). The sensor (1000) can be used for the purposes of monitoring the filling of the bladder, making bladder volume information to the recipient or another person, and causing an alarm signal to be generated when a preset bladder volume is reached.
