Patent number: 10894160Abstract: Embodiments of the present disclosure provide for catheters for use in electrical neuromodulation. The catheter of the present disclosure includes an elongate body having a first end and a second end. The elongate body includes a longitudinal center axis that extends between the first end and the second end. The elongate body further includes three or more surfaces that define a convex polygonal cross-sectional shape taken perpendicularly to the longitudinal center axis. The catheter further includes one or more electrodes on one surface of the three or more surfaces of the elongate body, where conductive elements extend through the elongate body. The conductive elements can conduct electrical current to combinations of the one or more electrodes.Type: GrantFiled: March 1, 2017Date of Patent: January 19, 2021Assignee: Cardionomic, Inc.Inventors: Steven L. Waldhauser, Steven D. Goedeke, Duane G. Frion

Patent number: 10576273Abstract: A catheter having an elongate body, at least two elongate stimulation members extending from the elongate body, at least one electrode on each of the elongate stimulation members, where the electrodes form an electrode array that receives and conducts electrical current. The elongate stimulation members curve only in the first volume defined at least in part by a first plane, and a second volume defined at least in part by the first plane and being opposite the first volume can contain no electrodes. The catheter can further include a position gauge having a marking that indicates a length between a second end of the elongate body and a bumper end of the position gauge. The catheter can also include a pulmonary artery catheter having a lumen, where the catheter extends through the lumen of the pulmonary artery catheter.Type: GrantFiled: November 21, 2016Date of Patent: March 3, 2020Assignee: Cardionomic, Inc.Inventors: Steven D.

Patent number: 10493278Abstract: A method of facilitating therapeutic neuromodulation of a heart of a patient includes positioning an electrode in a pulmonary artery, positioning a sensor in vasculature, delivering via a stimulation system first and second electrical signals of a series of electrical signals to the electrode. The second electrical signal differs from the first electrical signal by a magnitude of a first parameter of a plurality of parameters. The method includes determining, via the sensor, sensor data indicative of one or more heart activity properties in response to the delivery of the series of electrical signals, and delivering a therapeutic neuromodulation signal to the pulmonary artery using selected electrical parameters. The selected electrical parameters include a selected magnitude of the first parameter. The selected magnitude of the first parameter is based at least partially on the sensor data. The therapeutic neuromodulation signal increases heart contractility.Type: GrantFiled: January 4, 2016Date of Patent: December 3, 2019Assignee: Cardionomic, Inc.Inventors: Steven L.
