    摘要: A medical delivery system for delivering a fluid to a desired location within a body that includes a first member having an aperture, and a second member adapted to be positioned over the first member. The fluid to be delivered is contained within a fluid storage device, formed by at least one of the first member and the second member. The medical delivery system includes means for repositioning the first member relative to the second member between a first state preventing passage of the fluid through the aperture and a second state enabling passage of the fluid outward from the fluid storage device through the aperture.

    摘要: A patient-controlled system for temporarily disabling an electrical cardioverting therapy in order to prepare the patient psychologically and physiologically for the pain associated with electrical cardioversion therapy. In an example embodiment, the system includes a capacitive circuit capable of charging and discharging in order to apply the electrical therapy. The implanted medical device automatically causes the capacitive circuit to charge and discharge at least once within a selected period. The system includes a patient activator device that communicates with the implanted device. A disabling circuit is also included within the implanted medical device that temporarily disables the electrical therapy application in response to the patient activator device. The system further includes an alerting arrangement that alerts the patient activator device in response to the disabling circuit. An override circuit overrides the temporary disabling of the electrical therapy application in response to the patient being in a relaxed mode.

    摘要: A method and system is provided for responding, from internally within a patient, to an atrial arrhythmia in a heart including measuring from within the patient at least one electrocardiogram characteristic indicative of the atrial arrhythmia, and controlling from within the patient drug therapy delivery to the patient responsive to measuring the at least one electrocardiogram characteristic. Drug therapy is initiated to the patient responsive to measuring the at least one electrocardiogram characteristic. According to one aspect of the present invention, the drug therapy is staged within the patient prior to measuring the at least one electrocardiogram characteristic. According to another example embodiment, the heart is paced from within the patient at a predefined rate responsive to measuring the at least one electrocardiogram characteristic, pacing occurring alone, or in combination with drug therapy.

    摘要: A pain management system that enables a patient to control pain associated with the application of electrical therapies by an implanted device that includes using a non-implanted drug delivery device. In an example embodiment, a pain management system includes an implanted medical device that detects an arrhythmia of a heart and telemetrically communicates from the implanted medical device an arrhythmia condition. The system also includes an external drug delivery arrangement that receives telemetric communications on the arrhythmia condition from the implanted device and provides an alert of the arrhythmia condition to the patient. The external drug delivery arrangement communicates to the implanted device that a drug is being administered to the patient. The implanted medical device includes a capacitive circuit that delivers the electrical therapy to the heart in response to the drug being administered.
