  • Patent number: 8634930
    Abstract: Various system embodiments include a glucose control input, a low physical activity input, and a diabetic therapy delivery system adapted to respond to the glucose control input and the low physical activity input to deliver diabetic therapy. According to various embodiments, the diabetic therapy includes an anti-arrhythmia therapy, a hypertension therapy, a neural stimulation therapy adapted to reduce a risk of myocardial infarction, a neural stimulation therapy adapted to be applied after a myocardial infarction to reduce an infarct area, a neural stimulation therapy adapted to reduce a risk of sudden cardiac death, a therapy adapted to secrete insulin, or a therapy to reduce a workload of a diabetic heart. Other aspects and embodiments are provided herein.

  • Publication number: 20090018404
    Abstract: A test system and method for cardiovascular autonomic neuropathy that incorporates an implanted medical device. One aspect of the invention relates to a system for performing cardiovascular autonomic neuropathy (CAN) testing in a diabetic patient having an implantable medical device (IMD) that includes a plurality of implantable physiological sensors and that is configured to transmit a wireless signal corresponding to a sensed physiological activity and to receive wireless signals. The system further includes one or more non-implantable physiological sensors, where the non-implantable physiological sensors are each configured to transmit a signal corresponding to a sensed physiological parameter, and a monitor device having a patient interface. The monitor device is configured to interface with a patient, including directing the patient to answer health related questions and use one or more of the non-implantable physiological sensors.
