Publication number: 20230172542Abstract: Disclosed herein is a system, apparatus and method directed to patient temperature control. The system can include a control module configured to provide fluid that is heated or cooled, a heating and cooling system configured to couple with the control module and receive the fluid, and a temperature sensor coupled to the control module, the temperature sensor configured to measure a body temperature of a patient and provide signals to the control module that indicate the body temperature. The system can include a neurostimulation device coupled to the control module to provide neurostimulation to the patient. The control module can include logic, stored on non-transitory, computer-readable medium that, when executed by one or more processors, causes performance of operations including generation and transmission of first instructions to the neurostimulation device causing initiation of a first neurostimulation procedure.Type: ApplicationFiled: May 11, 2021Publication date: June 8, 2023Inventors: Jeff Baker, Patrick Downie, Jesse Smith, Eric A.

Patent number: 10327706Abstract: Pairing is provided between first and second wireless devices in a physiological condition management system. The first and second wireless devices are placed in proximity to initiate generation of a secret key via a random process at one of the devices and to exchange the secret key with the other device using a wireless near field communication (NFC) link. The shared secret key is then used to encrypt data for communication between the first and second wireless devices via a different secure radio frequency (RF) wireless channel.Type: GrantFiled: July 16, 2018Date of Patent: June 25, 2019Assignee: Becton, Dickinson and CompanyInventors: Michael Yarger, James Petisce, Ellen DiResta, Deborah Burns, David Mason
