    Abstract: An implantable medical device (IMD) configured for implant in a body includes an enclosure that houses communication circuitry, an antenna, a dielectric layer, and a transmission line. The enclosure includes an outer surface configured to be oriented in a direction facing the exterior of the body and to be placed adjacent tissue. The antenna includes a ground plane corresponding to the enclosure, a dielectric spacer that conforms to the outer surface of the enclosure, and a radiating element that conforms to the dielectric spacer. The dielectric layer overlays the radiating element and the dielectric spacer. The transmission line is electrically connected between the radiating element and the communication circuitry.

    Abstract: A system and method for estimating the current delivered to a patient during voltage-regulated electrical stimulation therapy by an implantable medical device includes calculating a total charge delivered and a peak current delivered and the time at which the peak current was delivered using a proxy for the current delivered to the patient and a component such as a current controlled oscillator, the output of which is proportional to the current proxy together with memory for storing values relating to the output proportional to the current proxy. The stored values also may be used to construct a waveform approximating the current delivered to the patient during a therapy of voltage-regulated stimulation. The system and method may be implemented in an active implantable medical device such as an implantable neurostimulator.

    Abstract: A sensor of an implantable medical device senses electrical activity of the brain. A data analyzer of the device monitors an electrographic signal corresponding to the electrical activity of the sensed brain signal, and processes the brain signal to obtain a measure of phase-amplitude coupling. For a selected portion of the electrographic signal, the data analyzer detects first features and second features of the electrographic signal. The first features represent oscillations in a low frequency range, while the second features represent oscillations in a frequency range higher than the low frequency range. For example, the low frequency range may correspond to theta frequency and the higher frequency range may correspond to gamma frequency. The data analyzer determines a measure of phase-amplitude coupling between oscillations in the low frequency range and oscillations in the higher frequency range based on occurrences of second features which coincide with first features.
