Abstract: Systems and techniques for wireless implantable devices, for example implantable biomedical devices employed for biomodulation. Some embodiments include a biomodulation system including a non-implantable assembly including a source for wireless power transfer and a data communications system, an implantable assembly including a power management module configured to continuously generate one or more operating voltage for the implantable assembly using wireless power transfer from the non-implantable assembly, a control module operably connected to at least one communication channel and at least one stimulation output, the control module including a processor unit to process information sensed via the at least one communication channel and, upon determining a condition exists, to generate an output to trigger the generation of a stimulus.

Abstract: An implanted medical device is prepared for a magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) scan by being programmed into an MRI mode when deemed appropriate by an external device implementing an MRI mode control application. An MRI technologist or other user may use the external device to screen the patient and implanted medical device for the MRI scan and enable the MRI mode at the implanted medical device when it is deemed appropriate in the MRI mode control application. Therapy parameters for the MRI mode may be determined on the basis of information about the device and patient, and those therapy parameters may be programmed into the implanted medical device upon enabling the MRI mode. The MRI technologist or other user may use the external device to disable the MRI mode and return to normal operation once the MRI scan is complete.

Abstract: A laminate structure for use as a container for liquids including a structural substrate such as a paperboard which facilitates a gable top container having incorporated on its inner surface a layer of a fibrous matrix which has encapsulated or incorporated therein a finely ground divinylbenzene ethyl vinylbenzene copolymer, polystyrene divinylbenzene copolymer resin or a cyclodextrin placed on its inner surface. Additionally, the fibrous matrix may be produced as an insert and attached to the inner surface of the gable top container through the use of various items such as hot melt adhesives.
