Publication number: 20240157156Abstract: An introducing device for locating a tissue region and deploying an electrode is shown and described. The introducing device may include an outer sheath. An inner sheath may be disposed within the outer sheath. The inner sheath may be configured to engage an implantable electrode. In an example, the inner sheath may comprise a stimulation probe having an uninsulated portion at or near a distal end of the delivery sheath. The outer sheath may be coupled to a power source or stimulation signal generating circuitry at a proximal end. A clinician may control application of the stimulation signal to a tissue region via the outer sheath.Type: ApplicationFiled: January 22, 2024Publication date: May 16, 2024Inventors: Joseph W. Boggs, Amorn Wongsarnpigoon, Matthew G. deBock, Meredith J. McGee, Devin Sell, Robert B. Strother

Publication number: 20240091537Abstract: Provided are systems and methods for treating pain in the head and neck, including headache pain. The systems and methods may be used to deliver electrical stimulation to the occipital nerve(s). The systems and methods may be used relieve pain in the region innervated by the targeted occipital nerves as well as one or more regions of referred pain that occur outside the innervation region of the occipital nerves. Due to the complex structures and anatomy around the occipital nerve(s), precise placement of the lead is achieved by the described systems and methods.Type: ApplicationFiled: October 12, 2023Publication date: March 21, 2024Inventors: Joseph W. Boggs, Nathan D. CROSBY, Amorn WONGSARNPIGOON, Claire ZURN, Matthew G. DEBOCK, Meredith J. McGee, Robert B. STROTHER
