    摘要: In general, the disclosure describes techniques for modifying therapy provided to a patient by a medical device. The techniques may be applicable to electrical stimulation therapy or other therapies. Modification of therapy may include adjustment of one or more therapy parameter values that define one or more characteristics of stimulation therapy delivered to a patient. The therapy modification may be based on activity of a patient that is detected by an IMD, such as a change in a detected posture state occupied by the patient. Different therapy modifications may be applied for different changes in detected posture state. An IMD may modify therapy based on a transition from one posture state to another posture state, and apply different modifications for different transitions. In some aspects, the modification may include a profile, such as a ramp up or ramp down in a parameter value over a period of time. The profile may be different for different posture transitions. A ramp slope may be steeper for one transition than for another transition. When a patient transitions from an upright to a lying posture state, for example, the profile may be especially abrupt. In some examples, a modification profile may define a dwell time.

    摘要: Techniques for detecting a value of a sensed patient parameter, and automatically delivering therapy to a patient according to therapy information previously associated with the detected value, are described. In exemplary embodiments, a medical device receives a therapy adjustment from the patient. In response to the adjustment, the medical device associates a sensed value of a patient parameter with therapy information determined based on the adjustment. Whenever the parameter value is subsequently detected, the medical device delivers therapy according to the associated therapy information. In this manner, the medical device may “learn” to automatically adjust therapy in the manner desired by the patient as the sensed parameter of the patient changes. Exemplary patient parameters that may be sensed for performance of the described techniques include posture, activity, heart rate, electromyography (EMG), an electroencephalogram (EEG), an electrocardiogram (ECG), temperature, respiration rate, and pH.

    摘要: A telemetry interface module according to the invention may be utilized to facilitate remote programming of a patient medical device such as an implantable medical device. The telemetry interface module includes processing logic, memory, and various software/firmware applications that are capable of generating a user interface (“UI”) description for transmission to a remote computing device. The UI description is transmitted in accordance with a standardized data communication protocol, and the remote computing device renders a UI in response to the received UI description. The remote computing device processes and renders the UI using its native operating system and native UI controls, thus eliminating the need for computing hardware customized for the particular medical device telemetry application.

    摘要: In general, the disclosure describes techniques for communication between at least one lead-borne device of an implantable lead and a medical device to which the lead is connected. The lead-borne device communicates with the medical device by modulating an impedance. The lead-borne device may communicate one or more bits of data to the medical device by selectively presenting either a first impedance or a second impedance to the medical device during one or more bit windows. The first and second impedance values may be respectively associated with first and second binary values, e.g., a high or one and low or zero.
