Publication number: 20250032004Abstract: A system includes an implantable medical device and processing circuitry. The implantable medical device includes an accelerometer and sensing circuitry. The processing circuitry obtains, during a calibration period, a first motion signal from the accelerometer. The processing circuitry determines a motion threshold based on the first motion signal. The motion threshold relates to an amount of motion of the patient that is significant for treatment of the health condition of the patient. The processing circuitry obtains, during a collection period, a second motion signal from the accelerometer. Responsive to the second motion signal satisfying the motion threshold, the processing circuitry stores data related to the treatment of the health condition of the patient.Type: ApplicationFiled: July 23, 2024Publication date: January 30, 2025Inventors: Jeraz D.

Patent number: 12194304Abstract: Techniques for switching an implantable medical device (IMD) from a first mode to a second mode in relation to signals obtained from internal sensors are described. The internal sensors may include a temperature sensor and a biosensor. In some examples, processing circuitry of the IMD may make a first preliminary determination that the IMD is implanted based on a first signal from the temperature sensor.
