Patent number: 11957912Abstract: This document discusses, among other things, systems and methods for managing pain of a subject. A system includes a first sensor circuit to sense a first signal indicative of a functional state of the subject, a second sensor circuit to sense a second signal different from the first signal, and a controller circuit. The controller circuit may determine an operating mode of the second sensor circuit according to the sensed first signal, trigger the second senor circuit to sense the second signal under the determined operating mode, and generate a pain score using at least the second signal sensed under the determined operating mode. The pain score may be output to a patient or used for closed-loop control of a pain therapy.Type: GrantFiled: August 10, 2022Date of Patent: April 16, 2024Assignee: Boston Scientific Neuromodulation CorporationInventors: Kyle Harish Srivastava, Pramodsingh Hirasingh Thakur, Dat Thanh Huynh, Bryan Allen Clark, Jianwen Gu

Publication number: 20240057894Abstract: This document discusses systems, devices, and methods for monitoring and managing patients with chronic pain. A patient monitoring system comprises a sensor circuit to sense a physiological or functional signal indicative of or correlated to patient mobility, an electrostimulator to generate and deliver neuromodulation therapy to the patient, and a controller circuit to generate a mobility metric using the sensed physiological or functional signal. The mobility metric represents respective times spent in different activity intensity levels associated with one or more types of activities during a specific time period. The controller circuit can trend the mobility metric over time and determine a progress toward a personalized mobility goal of the patient, and control the electrostimulator to initiate or adjust the neuromodulation therapy in accordance with the trended mobility metric or the determined progress toward the mobility goal.Type: ApplicationFiled: August 16, 2023Publication date: February 22, 2024Inventors: Kyle Harish Srivastava, Bradley Lawrence Hershey, Dat Thanh Huynh, Amarpreet Singh Bains, Matthew Lee McDonald, Benjamin Phillip Hahn, Kristen Marie Lechleiter

Publication number: 20240004577Abstract: Apparatus and methods for extending functionality of memory controllers in a processor-based device are disclosed herein. In one aspect, a processor-based device provides a memory access intercept circuit that is communicatively coupled to a memory controller and a memory device. The memory access intercept circuit is configured to receive a memory write request that is directed to and received by the memory controller, and generates a write transaction identifier (ID) for the memory write request. The memory access intercept circuit then generates proxy write data containing the write transaction ID, and sends the proxy write data to the memory controller. The memory access intercept circuit subsequently intercepts the actual write data directed to the memory controller, and stores the write data in a write data buffer in association with the write transaction ID.Type: ApplicationFiled: July 1, 2022Publication date: January 4, 2024Inventors: Massimo Sutera, Sandeep Brahmadathan, Nagi Aboulenein, Brian Thomas Chase, James Edward Casteel, Kha Minh Huynh, Vung Thanh Huynh

Publication number: 20230049146Abstract: Methods and systems directed to recovery of lithium (e.g., lithium salts) from liquid streams are provided. In some embodiments, methods relate to obtaining lithium (e.g., as a solid lithium salt) by removing at least a portion of liquid from a feed stream to form a concentrated stream with respect to solubilized lithium cations. Liquid removal may include transporting at least a portion of the feed stream to an osmotic unit and/or a humidifier. Some methods include removing impurities (e.g., non-lithium cations) from the concentrated stream (e.g., via precipitation and/or crystallization). In some embodiments, solutions containing solubilized lithium cations and anions are electrochemically-treated such that first solubilized anions are replaced with second, different anions. In some embodiments, solid lithium salt containing at least a portion of the lithium cations and the second anions is obtained (e.g.Type: ApplicationFiled: November 1, 2022Publication date: February 16, 2023Applicant: Gradiant CorporationInventors: Siva Kumar Kota, Hiep Thanh Huynh Le, Kushal Seth
