    摘要: Implantable medical device adapted to provide a therapeutic output to a patient. A therapy module, operatively coupled to a battery, is adapted to provide the therapeutic output. A control circuit provides an action indicative of recharging the battery when the voltage of the battery reaches a recharge voltage wherein the recharge voltage is varied as the battery ages. Also a method of providing a therapeutic output to a patient using an implantable medical device having a battery having a voltage. An action indicative of recharging the battery is provided when the voltage of the battery reaches a recharge voltage. The recharge voltage is varied as the battery ages.

    摘要: An implantable medical device (IMD) including a nonhermetic battery is described. The IMD includes components and a power source module that includes the nonhermetic battery. The IMD also includes a barrier to substantially impede movement of substances from the nonhermetic battery to the components. The barrier may include a hermetic feedthrough, a gel, a polymer, or a solid electrolyte within the nonhermetic battery, and a seal member. The barrier may also be a material that encapsulates the nonhermetic battery and a getter within the IMD. In some embodiments, the IMD comprises a modular IMD including an interconnect member. In that case, the barrier may include a material that fills at least a portion of a void defined by the interconnect member. A length and a cross-sectional area of the interconnect member may also act as a barrier.

    摘要: The invention is directed to techniques for decreasing the volume and thickness of a hermetic battery that includes an electrode stack contained within a hermetic housing. In particular, the invention is directed to batteries that have a non-uniform thickness as defined by the hermetic housing. A battery according to the invention includes a battery housing with at least two battery housing portions that define different thicknesses. For example, a first portion of the battery housing may have first thickness and house the battery, while a second portion of the battery housing has a second thickness and includes one or more feedthroughs. The second thickness may be greater than the first thickness.

    摘要: An implantable medical device with lubricious material permits implantable medical devices to have a reduced friction between the device and at least a portion of the surrounding tissue. The implantable medical device may have a housing or it may have a housing and a member for providing a smooth interface between the device and the tissue. The lubricious material may be provided on or impregnated in the housing or the member. In some embodiments, the device is configured for implantation in the head of a human body. In other embodiments, the device is configured for implantation between the cranium and the scalp. In some embodiments, the device includes a single module while in other embodiments a plurality of modules are coupled together to provide a smaller profile.
