Abstract: A multi-active-implantable-medical-device therapy system is disclosed, comprising a closed-loop neural stimulation (CLNS) device and a second active medical device. The CLNS device is configured to repeatedly execute a first activity, which involves delivering neural stimuli according to a stimulus parameter, measuring the intensities of responses evoked by the stimuli, and adjusting the stimulus parameter value to maintain the measured evoked response intensity at or near a target value. The second active medical device is configured to repeatedly execute a second activity. The system also includes a tracking device in communication with the CLNS device, which is configured to monitor a shared medium of the system to estimate the timing of the second activity. Based on the timing of the second activity, the CLNS device adjusts the timing of the first activity to mitigate interference from the second activity, thereby ensuring the effective execution of the first activity according to the adjusted timing.

Abstract: The present invention relates to systems, methods and devices for determining one or more pre-existing characteristics, pre-existing states or both of a combination absorbent article and electrical circuit after connecting an electronic device to the combination absorbent article and electrical circuit. The method and system is particularly, although not exclusively, suitable for determining pre-existing characteristics such as absorbent article size, type, capacity and a pre-existing state such as whether or not the electrical circuit of the combination absorbent article and electrical circuit has been previously connected to the electronic device or another like electronic device.

Abstract: A method for determining one or more time indicators for scheduling one or more procedures includes receiving at a processing means one or more inputs comprising data relevant to the procedure, receiving at the processing means one or more objectives for optimising time indicators for performing instances of the procedure, and causing the processing means to receive as an input to an optimisation procedure at least a subset of the one or more received inputs and a representation of the one or more received objectives to produce one or more time indicators for scheduling the one or more procedures. The processing means generates outputs for representing one or more time indicators for scheduling the one or more procedures (such as toileting a patient) for which at least a subset of the received objectives are optimised.
