Patents by Inventor Philipp Staeuber

Philipp Staeuber has filed for patents to protect the following inventions. This listing includes patent applications that are pending as well as patents that have already been granted by the United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO).

  • Patent number: 9681816
    Abstract: A device and method that detects a lead failure condition for a lead having at least one electrode in contact with body tissue, wherein the lead is connected to the device. The device includes a first filter that filters an electric signal sensed by the at least one electrode to a first filtered signal, and a lead failure detection unit that detects signal characteristics of the first filtered signal. The lead failure detection unit indicates a lead failure condition when the detected signal characteristics correspond to a step response of the first filter.
    Type: Grant
