Abstract: A method of evaluating spinal cord stimulation (SCS), comprising obtaining neural response data generated by a spinal cord stimulator, where the neural response data describes one or more neural signals evoked in the spinal cord of a patient by applying diagnostic stimuli. One or more evoked compound action potentials (ECAPs) associated with the respective one or more neural signals are detected. The one or more detected ECAPs are processed to generate one or more evaluation metrics, and the one or more evaluation metrics are used to generate a confidence score indicating a degree of effectiveness of SCS on the patient.

Abstract: A linear motor conveyor system including: a track comprising a shaped guide rail; a plurality of moving elements, each moving element having: a body; at least two bearings supported by the body and configured to match with the shaped guide rail, wherein the bearings are mounted to the moving element such that the moving elements overlap along the direction of the track providing a reduced tooling pitch between the moving elements. A moving element for moving on a track of a conveyor system, the moving element including: a first set of bearings shaped to match with a first shaped guide rail; a second set of bearings configured to abut against a second guide rail; and a body supporting the first and the second bearing, wherein the body is shaped to allow the first bearing to at least partially overlap the body of an adjacent moving element.

Abstract: A method for automatically upgrading an operating system on a computer is provided. The method includes collecting system state information from the computer, and querying a knowledge base to identify state modification actions. Querying the knowledge base may include use of a classification algorithm, for example the k-nearest-neighbours algorithm, to identify non-exact matches in the knowledge base. The system is modified according to identified state modification actions and an upgrade is attempted. In the event that the upgrade fails, information from collected log files is used to update the knowledge base to propose further state modification actions, and the upgrade is attempted again.

Abstract: Disclosed is a method of computing a probability distribution of the suitability of measurement electrode configurations for a neuromodulation device. The method comprises: computing the probability distribution of suitability of measurement electrode configurations from: a predetermined stimulus program vector of the neuromodulation device; and prior patient data. Also disclosed is an automated method of setting a measurement electrode configuration for a neuromodulation device configured to deliver a neural stimulus to a neural pathway of a patient.

Abstract: A backup recovery and testing method is disclosed. The recovery method restores backed-up systems according to a stored configuration, and collects logs as the restored systems start up. The collected logs are compared with stored baseline logs, by a process which includes parsing the logs into templates and parameters, and identifying anomalies automatically for example by principal component analysis. Anomalies identified may be used to modify the stored configuration.
