摘要:
Computer implemented methods and systems are provided that comprise, under control of one or more processors of a medical device, where the one or more processors are configured with specific executable instructions. The methods and systems include sensing circuitry configured to define a sensing channel to collect biological signals, memory configured to store program instructions, a processor configured to implement the program instructions to at least one of analyze the biological signals, manage storage of the biological signals or deliver a therapy, and communication circuitry configured to wirelessly communicate with at least one other implantable or external device, the communication circuitry configured to transition between a sleep state, a partial awake state and a fully awake state. When in the fully awake state, the communication circuitry is configured to execute tasks and actions associated with a communications protocol startup (CPS) instruction set that includes an advertisement scanning related (ASR) instruction subset and a non-ASR instruction subset. When in the partially awake state, the communication circuitry is configured to execute, as the ASR instruction subset, transmit advertising notices over one or more channels according to a wireless communications protocol, scan the one or more channels for a connection request from an external device. When a connection request is not received, return to the sleep state, without performing actions or tasks associated with the non-ASR instruction subset of the CPA instruction set.
摘要:
A computer implemented method and system to detect P-waves in cardiac activity is provided. The system includes memory to store specific executable instructions. One or more processors are configured to execute the specific executable instructions for obtaining far field cardiac activity (CA) signals for a series of beats, applying a P-wave template to at least one sub-segment of the CA signals to obtain an alignment indicator and calculating an amplitude dependence (AD) indicator based at least in part on the P-wave template and the at least one sub-segment. The system analyzes the alignment indicator based on a first criteria, compares the AD indicator with a second criteria, designates a candidate P-wave to be an actual P-wave based on the analyzing and comparing and records results of the designating.

Disclosed herein is a battery with a pouch-type enclosure for use with an implantable electronic device. The battery may have greater than 20 megaohms of isolation between the anode and the external surface of the pouch-type battery enclosure and the cathode and the external surface of the pouch-type battery enclosure. The battery may have a pouch-type enclosure with a contoured shape, including a cathode, anode, and electrolyte disposed within the pouch-type enclosure. The cathode and/or anode may have variable thicknesses. The variable thickness anode and/or cathode may be contoured in shape to at least partially provide the contoured shape of the pouch-type enclosure.
摘要:
A method is provided for establishing a communication session with an implantable medical device (“IMD”). The method includes configuring an IMD and an external device to communicate with one another through a protocol that utilizes a dedicated advertisement channel. The advertisement period and the scan period of the protocol are independent of one another such that the advertisement and scan periods at least partially overlap intermittently after a number of cycles. When the external device detects one of the advertisement notices, the method includes establishing a communications link between the external device and the IMD.

摘要:
The present disclosure provides systems and methods for an active implantable medical device (AIMD). The AIMD includes a processor, a first magnetic field sensor communicatively coupled to the processor and configured to detect magnetic fields generated by a handheld magnet, and at least one second magnetic field sensor communicatively coupled to the processor and configured to detect magnetic fields generated by a magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) scanner. The processor is configured to sample the first magnetic field sensor and the at least one second magnetic field sensor to detect the presence of the MRI scanner, and automatically initiate an MRI mode for the AIMD based on the detection.

摘要:
A method is provided for establishing a communication session with an implantable medical device (“IMD”). The method includes configuring an IMD and an external device to communicate with one another through a protocol that utilizes a dedicated advertisement channel. The IMD periodically transmitting advertisement notices over the dedicated advertisement channel according to the protocol. The advertisement notices being transmitted periodically at an advertisement period over multiple cycles. The method further includes repeatedly scanning the advertisement channel, by the external device, for select scanning intervals in search of the advertisement notices, the scanning operation being repeated periodically at a scan period over the multiple cycles. The advertisement period and the scan period are independent of one another such that the advertisement and scan periods at least partially overlap intermittently after a number of cycles. When the external device detects one of the advertisement notices, the method includes establishing a communications link between the external device and the IMD.
