摘要:
An interactive implantable medical device system includes an implantable medical device and a network-enabled external device capable of bi-directional communication and interaction with the implantable medical device. The external device is programmed to interact with other similarly-enabled devices. The system facilitates improved patient care by eliminating unnecessary geographic limitations on implantable medical device interrogation and programming, and by allowing patients, physicians, and other users to access medical records, history, and information and to receive status and care-related alerts and messages anywhere there is access to a communications network.

摘要:
Described here are implantable devices and methods for monitoring physiological information relating to sleep. The implantable devices are generally designed to include at least one sensor for sensing physiological information, a processor for processing the physiological information using low computational power to detect a sleep stage, and a battery. The detected sleep stage information may then be used to indicate sleep quality, identify or monitor a medical condition, or guide treatment thereof.
摘要:
An epileptiform activity patient-specific template creation system permits a user to efficiently develop an optimized set of patient-specific parameters for epileptiform activity detection algorithms. The epileptiform activity patient template creation system is primarily directed for use with an implantable neurostimulator system having EEG storage capability, in conjunction with a computer software program operating within a computer workstation having a processor, disk storage and input/output facilities for storing, processing and displaying patient EEG signals. The implantable neurostimulator is operative to store records of EEG data when neurological events are detected, when it receives external commands to record, or at preset or random times. The computer workstation operates on stored and uploaded records of EEG data to derive the patient-specific templates.

摘要:
A system and method for detecting and predicting neurological events with an implantable device uses a relatively low-power central processing unit in connection with signal processing circuitry to identify features (including half waves) and calculate window-based characteristics (including line lengths and areas under the curve of the waveform) in an electrographic signal received from a patient's brain. The features and window-based characteristics are combinable in various ways according to the invention to detect and predict neurological events in real time, enabling responsive action by the implantable device.
