607 9, 607 27, 607 32, 607119, 607122, 600373, 600374

Abstract:

A leadless cardiac pacemaker comprises a housing, a plurality of electrodes coupled to an outer surface of the housing, and a pulse delivery system hermetically contained with the housing and electrically coupled to the electrode plurality, the pulse delivery system configured for sourcing energy internal to the housing, generating and delivering electrical pulses to the electrode plurality. The pacemaker further comprises an activity sensor hermetically contained within the housing and adapted to sense activity and a processor hermetically contained within the housing and communicatively coupled to the pulse delivery system, the activity sensor, and the electrode plurality, the processor configured to control electrical pulse delivery at least partly based on the sensed activity.

Appl. No.:

11/549605

Inventors:

Peter M. Jacobson - Chanhassen MN, US

Assignee:

Nanostim, Inc. - Milpitas CA

International Classification:

A61N 1/372

US Classification:

607 59, 607 30, 607 31, 607 32, 607 60

Abstract:

Appl. No.:

11/549574

Inventors:

Peter M. Jacobson - Chanhassen MN, US

Assignee:

Nanostim, Inc. - Milpitas CA

International Classification:

A61N 1/372

US Classification:

607119

Abstract:

A delivery system for implanting a biostimulation device comprising a stylet extending along an axis from knob end to a threaded end configured to engage an internally threaded nut of the biostimulation device and a catheter tube configured to axially contain the stylet. The catheter tube comprises a feature that engages a corresponding feature on the biostimulation device whereby the stylet can be rotated relative to the catheter tube for disengagement of the stylet threaded end from the biostimulation device threaded end.

Appl. No.:

11/549599

Inventors:

Peter M. Jacobson - Chanhassen MN, US

Assignee:

Nanostim, Inc. - Sunnyvale CA

International Classification:

A61N 1/05

US Classification:

607 33, 607 2

Abstract:

A cardiac pacing system comprising one or more leadless cardiac pacemakers configured for implantation in electrical contact with a cardiac chamber and configured to perform cardiac pacing functions in combination with a co-implanted implantable cardioverter-defibrillator (ICD).

Inventors:

Peter Jacobson - Chanhassen MN, US

International Classification:

A61N 1/362

US Classification:

607009000

Abstract:

A cardiac pacing system comprises multiple leadless cardiac pacemakers configured for implantation in electrical contact with a cardiac chamber and configured for multi-chamber cardiac pacing.

Abstract:

A method of treating an overactive bladder condition includes providing a stimulation device having a generator enclosing a primary cell that is coupled to circuitry, and a lead coupling an electrode assembly to the generator, where the circuitry is operable to generate a stimulation signal with a duty cycle of between 0.1% and 2.5% and a total average current drain from the primary cell of between 0.1 μA and 5 μA, with the total average current drain including a background current plus a stimulation current weighted by the duty cycle; forming an incision in skin of a patient diagnosed with the overactive bladder condition; implanting the stimulation device in the patient by inserting the stimulation device into the incision in the skin of the patient; and closing the incision.
