    摘要: Feedback systems and methods enhance obstructive and other obesity treatments by presenting feedback regarding patients' actual eating. An ingestion restricting implant body can be deployed along the gastrointestinal tract. In some embodiments, ingestion alters the implant body, which, in turn, generates signals. The generated signals can be used to inhibit unhealthy ingestion by the patient. In other embodiments, the implant body can be altered by signals so as to selectable change the restriction imposed on the gastrointestinal tract, optionally in response to ingestion events, an eating schedule, or the like. The implant body may comprise a gastric band. Sensor signals may be processed to identify ingestion and/or characterize ingestion material, and the results may be displayed on a screen for a patient or coach to view.

    摘要: Medical, diagnostic, and/or patient monitoring methods, systems and devices enhance ingestion-related health, often by screening and/or treating patients with eating disorders. Optionally, a gastric electric stimulation (GES) therapy system monitors changes in an obese patients' autonomic balance associated with a stimulation event and/or a meal event by analyzing heart rate variability (HRV) of the patient. These event-based changes in autonomic balance may be used to determine which patients will likely respond to GES therapy, and/or to control the GES therapy administration.

    摘要: Methods and systems discriminate between food and drink intake, optionally with a single temperature sensor positioned in a patient's stomach. Ingestion events may be detected and the substance ingested is classified as either food or drink based on several characteristics of the intra-gastric temperature signal from before, during, and after ingestion. Multiple ingestion events making up a meal may be detected and classified such that the entire meal can be classified as food only, drink only, or mixed food and drink. Treatments to a patient may be at least partially based upon the detection and classification of ingestion events. A method of preparing an intake classification algorithm using a training set of temperature data is also provided.
