Patents by Inventor Gregory J. Linden

Gregory J. Linden has filed for patents to protect the following inventions. This listing includes patent applications that are pending as well as patents that have already been granted by the United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO).

  • Patent number: 7685005
    Abstract: A system and method for computer enabled network patient management of medical devices used in chronic disease management. Utilizing web site and push alert notification of alert level physiologic data derived via analysis of continuous stream wireless data transmissions from a patient, a full cycle improvement over existing modalities is achieved. Proxy and medical device user integration and access is enabled to achieve further contribution to the technical advantages of the system.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: August 29, 2001
    Date of Patent: March 23, 2010
    Assignee: Medtronic, Inc.
    Inventors: Kenneth M. Riff, Gregory J. Linden, Kurt R. Smith
  • Patent number: 7272433
    Abstract: An external physiologic or implanted device monitor/controller (“monitor”) designed to be attached to the body, as for example, to the skin of the patient. The monitor is designed to detect the therapeutic outputs actually produced by the implanted medical device. Having knowledge of the operation of the implanted medical device, the monitor may then deduce, or decode, the physiologic conditions and/or devices conditions sensed by the implanted medical device. The monitor is then able to perform an action appropriate to the sensed condition and the specific implementation.
