  • Patent number: 11547858
    Abstract: Systems, methods, and devices are described herein for evaluation, adjustment, and delivery of adaptive cardiac therapy. The systems, methods, and devices may utilize electrical heterogeneity information to determine and/or select one or more pacing settings and pacing type or configurations for a plurality of different heart rates. The adaptive cardiac therapy may deliver cardiac therapy at selected pacing settings such as, for example, A-V and/or V-V intervals, according to a presently measured heart rate and switch between left ventricular-only or biventricular cardiac pacing therapy also according to the presently measured heart rate.

  • Publication number: 20220225696
    Abstract: Disclosed embodiments describe approaches for warming a portion of a human body. The warming is based on heated apparel (e.g., a heated glove) coupled to an electrical power supply through a heater controller. The heated apparel (e.g., a glove) can be fabricated using a narrow knit electronic textile. A heater can be constructed from the narrow knit electronic textile. The heater is coupled to the heated apparel (e.g., a glove) for warming a portion (e.g., a hand) of a human body, wherein heating by the heater is accomplished using electrical power from the electrical power supply. The heater is controlled by a heater controller which is interposed between the heater and the electrical power supply.

  • Patent number: 10675398
    Abstract: A peritoneal dialysis system includes a base peritoneal dialysis system and a peritoneal dialysis fluid exchange system that operates independently of the base system. The base system includes a first cassette including a first patient line configured to be connected to a patient, and a PD cycler. The PD cycler receives the first cassette, and includes a pump that cooperates with the first cassette to deliver dialysate to and drain dialysate from a peritoneal cavity of the patient via the first patient line. The peritoneal dialysis fluid exchange system includes a second cassette including a second patient line configured to be connected to the patient and a fluid exchange device that receives the second cassette. The fluid exchange device includes a data exchange interface operable to transfer patient treatment data from the peritoneal dialysis fluid exchange system to the base peritoneal dialysis system.
