  • Patent number: 11471283
    Abstract: A device of a shape memory material configured to implement a predetermined level of expansion while allowing contraction and twist can be implemented in a portion of a vascular system, such as in the left ventricle of the heart of a patient suffering from heart failure with preserved ejection fraction.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: February 19, 2018
    Date of Patent: October 18, 2022
    Assignee: Regents of the University of Minnesota
    Inventors: Andrew Khair, Julianna Abel, Adam Lin Choe, Thomas O. Viker, Henry Koon

  • Publication number: 20120108996
    Abstract: An apparatus is disclosed for controlled neuromodulation. The apparatus includes a plurality of neural sensors, wherein each of the neural sensors is electrically connected to a separate signal conditioner. Each of the signal conditioners produces a neural sensor signal, which is analyzed by a separate threshold detector to produces a neural event signal when the neural sensor signal exceeds a threshold level associated with the threshold detector. Each of the threshold detectors is connected to a wireless transceiver and the wireless transceivers transmit the neural event signals to a processor. The processor analyzes the neural event signals and determines the presence or absence of a clinical brain state. The apparatus can be used to detect and control epileptic seizures.
