Abstract: Disclosed is a system to plan and position an implant in a subject. The planned position may be based upon various features and structures identified in a group of subjects for a current subject. The implant may then be positioned in a selected position including a relative position and orientation of one or more electrodes on the implant which may be identified as an optimal position for the selected current subject.

Abstract: A sensor including electrodes, a control module and a physical layer module. The electrodes are configured to (i) attach to a patient, and (ii) receive a first electromyographic signal from the patient. The control module is connected to the electrodes. The control module is configured to (i) detect the first electromyographic signal, and (ii) generate a first voltage signal. The physical layer module is configured to: receive a payload request from a console interface module or a nerve integrity monitoring device; and based on the payload request, (i) upconvert the first voltage signal to a first radio frequency signal, and (ii) wirelessly transmit the first radio frequency signal from the sensor to the console interface module or the nerve integrity monitoring device.

Abstract: A system includes memory configured to store image content representative of a lead implanted within a patient, and processing circuitry. The processing circuitry is configured to determine a reference point in the image content, determine a plane in the image content that corresponds to an orientation marker based on the reference point, determine an orientation of the lead based on the determined plane, and output information indicative of the determined orientation.

Abstract: Devices, systems, and techniques are disclosed for determining an orientation of an implanted medical lead. For example, a system may include processing circuitry configured to receive image data representing a lead implanted within a patient, identify, from the image data, at least one hypointensive portion, identify, from the image data, at least one hyperintensive portion, determine, based on the at least one hypointensive portion and the at least one hyperintensive portion, an orientation of the lead within the patient, and output the orientation of the lead.

Abstract: A spinal implant includes a link having a first surface and a second surface connectable with a spinal construct. The spinal construct is attachable with one or more vertebral levels. A plurality of electrodes includes at least one electrode disposed with the first surface and at least one electrode disposed with the second surface such that the electrodes conduct an electric current to stimulate tissue growth adjacent the spinal construct. Systems, surgical instruments and methods are disclosed.

Abstract: A bone growth simulator system. A bioabsorbable electric circuit is encapsulated in a modified alginate known-time dissolving capsule having a rate of dissolving proportional to the thickness of the capsule. The electronic circuit is powered by a power source. The power source can be inside the capsule or outside the capsule, and can be bioabsorbable or at least biocompatible. An operational amplifier maintains constant current through the circuit. The current stimulates bone growth in bones adjacent to the circuit. The capsule and electric circuit dissolve after completion of the therapy.

Abstract: An on-body injector and method of use including an on-body injector for use with an injection device. The on-body injector includes a bolus reservoir; a bolus injection needle in fluid communication with the bolus reservoir, the bolus injection needle having a bolus injection needle tip aligned with the injection port, the bolus injection needle being slideably biased away from the injection port to define a gap between the bolus injection needle tip and the injection port; and a button operably connected to the bolus injection needle to slide the bolus injection needle along the injection axis. The button is operable to advance the bolus injection needle tip to close the gap and advance the bolus injection needle tip into the injection port. The button is further operable to advance a plunger through the bolus reservoir to deliver a predetermined bolus volume to the patient through the injection flow path.
