  • Therapy using perturbation and effect of physiological systems
    Patent number: 8888699
    Abstract: Methods for treating a patient and further to devices for performing such treatment, e.g., methods and devices to perturb at least one physiological system and deliver therapy to the patient based on the effects of such perturbation. For example, a method for using an implantable medical device is disclosed that involves a method for using an implantable medical device delivering electrical stimuli to an afferent nerve associated with the selected organ. The efferent electrical activity is monitored in an efferent nerve responsive to delivering electrical stimuli to the afferent nerve, the monitored efferent electrical activity includes an indirect component of a compound action potential (CAP). A status of the selected organ is assessed based upon the indirect component.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: April 26, 2011
    Date of Patent: November 18, 2014
    Assignee: Medtronic, Inc.
    Inventors: Hendrik Peter Johan Buschman, Richard N. M. Cornelussen, Michael Roland Scott Hill, Lilian Kornet, Simone Cornelia Maria Anna Ordelman, Petrus Hermanus Veltink
