    Abstract: A system for reducing toxicity from intravascular triggered drug delivery includes a chamber comprising an inflow port, an outflow port, and a filter positioned upstream of the outflow port. A trigger module is configured to trigger the release of a drug from an intravascular triggered drug delivery system present in blood in the chamber. A method for reducing toxicity from intravascular triggered drug delivery includes the steps of removing blood comprising an intravascular triggered drug delivery system from a patient's vascular system and delivering the blood to a chamber, applying a trigger to the blood to release a drug from the intravascular triggered drug delivery system, filtering the drug from the blood, and returning the filtered blood to the patient.

    Abstract: A system for neurorehabilitation is disclosed that includes a motion detector configured to generate a motion detection feedback signal, a transcutaneous auricular vagus nerve stimulation module, and a controller configured to receive the motion detection feedback signal and send a stimulation signal to the transcutaneous auricular vagus nerve stimulation module based on the motion detection feedback signal meeting a minimum threshold criteria. A method for neurorehabilitation is disclosed that includes the steps of detecting patient motor activity, determining if the detected patient motor activity meets a minimum threshold criteria, and stimulating a vagus nerve through transcutaneous auricular vagus nerve stimulation if the minimum threshold criteria is met.

    Abstract: A cranial anchor system configured to attach to an opening in a cranium includes an anchor member. The anchor member has a middle anchor portion and a lower anchor portion coupled to and disposed in a downward direction relative to the middle anchor portion. The lower anchor portion has a plurality of contact members, each of which have a leg that extends at least partially in the downward direction, a tab connected to the leg, and a rib disposed between the leg and the tab. The system further includes an outer sheath and an inner sheath disposed within the outer sheath and slidable relative to the outer sheath.
