Abstract: Systems for delivering therapy to an intestinal muscle in a patient may comprise a cardiac sensor, an intestinal sensor, an implantable pulse generator and a signal delivery device. The signal delivery device may be configured to deliver a stimulation signal to the muscle. The implantable pulse generator may comprise a microcontroller configured to receive cardiac data from the cardiac sensor and calculate a heart rate parameter therefrom, receive intestinal activity data from the intestinal sensor and calculate an intestinal activity parameter therefrom, determine a physiological state of a patient based on the parameters, adjust a stimulation parameter of the stimulation signal based on the determined state, and instruct the signal delivery device to deliver an adjusted stimulation signal.
Abstract: Systems for delivering therapy to a nerve in a patient may comprise a plurality of sensors, such as a cardiac sensor, a disease activity sensor, and a bodily activity sensor, an implantable pulse generator, and an implantable signal delivery device. The implantable signal delivery device may be configured to deliver a stimulation signal to the nerve.
