Abstract: Methods and systems provide for receiving, at a remote server, first data and a first sharing key acquired from a first processor associated with a first medical practice, and receiving, at the remote server, second data and a second sharing key acquired from a second processor associated with a second medical practice. The methods and systems provide for comparing, by the remote server, the first sharing key to the second sharing key, and granting, to the first and second processors by the remote server, access to the first and second data stored in the remote server in response to a successful comparison of the first and second sharing keys. The methods and systems provide for sharing, by the remote server, the first and second data with the first and second processors in response to the grant of access.

Abstract: A cuff electrode includes at least an array of electrodes to extend circumferentially about a nerve, and methods of making and using a cuff electrode.

Abstract: An apparatus includes an implantable stimulator to treat sleep disordered breathing (SDB) and at least one electrode associated with the stimulator.

Abstract: An electronic medical device includes a first portion, with the first portion including a first insertion hole and an external surface. The first insertion hole is to removably receive an elongate element. The external surface of the first portion comprises a first position indicator, which is located to be visibly juxtaposed relative to a first operative element of the elongate element when the elongate element is fully inserted in the first insertion hole. In some instances, the position indicator may serve a dual function as a vent.

Abstract: A system and method for automatically implementing a therapy for treating sleep disordered breathing.

Abstract: A communication platform at least partially implements secure communications between a medical device and a trusted authority (TA) service provider. The secure communications prevent access to the secure communications by the communication platform while permitting access to the secure communications at the medical device and/or at the trusted authority service provider.

Abstract: A patient control is disclosed that facilitates operation of an implantable medical device.

Abstract: A first sensing element including an accelerometer-based sensor for sleep disordered breathing (SDB) care.

Abstract: An implantable medical device includes at least one conductive element and an associated attenuation arrangement to attenuate MRI energy.

Abstract: A system and method for identifying a stimulation location on a nerve is disclosed. The system includes an image-based navigation interface used to facilitate advancing a stimulation element within a patient body toward a target nerve stimulation site. Using the system one determines, separately for each potential target nerve stimulation site, a neuromuscular response of muscles produced upon applying a stimulation signal at the respective separate potential target stimulation sites. The image-based navigation interface is configured to display a graphic identification of which muscles were activated for each respective potential target nerve stimulation site upon applying the stimulation signal.

Abstract: A system and/or method involving sensing first data via at least one implantable sensor of an implantable medical device (IMD) system, and identifying a presence-absence state of a magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) system using the first data.

Abstract: A cuff electrode includes at least an array of electrodes to extend circumferentially about a nerve, and methods of making and using a cuff electrode.

Abstract: An electrode cuff includes a first elongate portion and a second elongate portion. The first elongate portion is configured to removably contact a length of a nerve while the second elongate portion extends outwardly at an angle relative to a first side edge of the first elongate portion to at least partially wrap about the nerve. The electrode cuff includes a first series of electrodes that is spaced apart longitudinally along the first elongate portion. A width of the second elongate portion is sized to fit between adjacent branches extending from a nerve.

Abstract: A self-powered sensor to produce an output signal corresponding to physiologic change and methods of use.

Abstract: A system and method for treating sleep apnea includes inserting an implantable pulse generator subcutaneously within a body of a patient and connecting a lead to the pulse generator. The lead is inserted within the vasculature and advanced transvenously through the vasculature until a stimulation portion of the lead becomes positioned in close proximity to the hypoglossal nerve. A nerve-stimulation signal is applied to the hypoglossal nerve via the stimulation portion of the lead.

Abstract: A communication platform at least partially implements secure communications between a medical device and a trusted authority (TA) service provider. The secure communications prevent access to the secure communications by the communication platform while permitting access to the secure communications at the medical device and/or at the trusted authority service provider.
