    摘要: Various system embodiments comprise an implantable lead, an implantable housing, a neural stimulation circuit in the housing, and a controller in the housing and connected to the neural stimulation circuit. The lead has a proximal end and a distal end. The distal end is adapted to deliver neural stimulation pulses to the ventral nerve root and the dorsal nerve root. The proximal end of the lead is adapted to connect to the housing. The neural stimulation circuit is adapted to generate neural stimulation pulses to stimulate the ventral nerve root or the dorsal nerve root using the implantable lead. The controller is adapted to control the neural stimulation circuit to deliver a neural stimulation treatment.

    摘要: Various system embodiments comprise a lead having a distal end and a proximal end. The distal end includes a plurality of electrodes. The lead is configured to be fed into a dorsal epidural space of a human to a desired region of a spinal column and to be fed laterally to at least partially encircle a spinal cord in the desired region to place at least one stimulation electrode in position to stimulate a dorsal nerve root and at least another stimulation electrode in position to stimulate a ventral nerve root. The desired region may include cervical vertebrae, thoracic vertebrae, or lumbar vertebrae. Some embodiments stimulate the spinal cord in the T1-T5 region.

    摘要: According to various embodiments of a method for modulating autonomic neural activity in a body having a spinal cord, a subclavian vein and thoracic lymphatic vessels that include a thoracic duct and a right lymphatic duct, at least one programmed therapy is implemented using an implanted medical device to modulate autonomic neural activity. Implementing the therapy includes increasing or decreasing sympathetic activity in sympathetic nerves branching from a first region of the spinal cord using a first electrode in the thoracic duct, and further includes increasing or decreasing parasympathetic activity in parasympathetic nerves adjacent to the desired thoracic lymphatic vessel or sympathetic activity in sympathetic nerves branching from a second region of the spinal cord using a second electrode in the desired thoracic lymphatic vessel.

    摘要: According to various method embodiments, a person is indicated for a therapy to treat a cardiovascular disease, and the therapy is delivered to the person to treat the cardiovascular disease. Delivering the therapy includes delivering a vagal stimulation therapy (VST) to a vagus nerve of the person at a therapeutically-effective intensity for the cardiovascular disease that is below an upper boundary at which upper boundary the VST would lower an intrinsic heart rate during the VST.
