Filed:
Jan 11, 2021
Appl. No.:
17/145514
Inventors:
- Valencia CA, US
Bryan Allen Clark - Forest Lake MN, US
Elizabeth Mary Annoni - White Bear Lake MN, US
Sandra Nagale - Bolton MA, US
Pramodsingh Hirasingh Thakur - Woodbury MN, US
Jianwen Gu - Valencia CA, US
International Classification:
A61N 1/36
A61N 1/05
A61B 5/16
A61B 5/00
G16H 20/70
A61B 5/11
G16H 50/30
G16H 40/63
Abstract:
This document discusses, among other things, systems and methods for managing pain in a subject. A system may include one or more sensors configured to sense from the subject information corresponding to emotional reaction to pain, such as emotional expression. The emotional expression includes facial or vocal expression. A pain analyzer circuit may generate a pain score using signal metrics of facial or vocal expression extracted from the sensed information. The pain score may be output to a user or a process. The system may additionally include a neurostimulator that can adaptively control the delivery of pain therapy by automatically adjusting stimulation parameters based on the pain score.

Bladder Treatment By Ablative Denervation

View page
US Patent:
20200297409, Sep 24, 2020
Filed:
Jun 2, 2020
Appl. No.:
16/890395
Inventors:
- Maple Grove MN, US
Mark W. Boden - Harrisville RI, US
Sandra Nagale - Bolton MA, US
International Classification:
A61B 18/14
Abstract:
In one aspect, the present disclosure is directed to methods of treating various conditions including bladder conditions in a patient, comprising: positioning at least one ablative element of an ablative device on or over an adventitial surface of the bladder; and using the ablative device to denervate bladder nerve fibers. Other aspects of the present disclosure pertain, for example, to devices and kits for of treating bladder conditions.

US Patent:
20190150851, May 23, 2019
Filed:
Nov 13, 2018
Appl. No.:
16/188669
Inventors:
- Maple Grove MN, US
Elizabeth Mary Annoni - White Bear Lake MN, US
Sandra Nagale - Bolton MA, US
Jeffrey E. Stahmann - Ramsey MN, US
Kyle Harish Srivastava - Saint Paul MN, US
Mark W. Boden - Harrisville RI, US
Martin Phelan - Sussex NJ, US
George Wilfred Duval - Sudbury MA, US
International Classification:
A61B 5/00
C07K 16/24
A61B 5/024
Abstract:
An example of a system for monitoring and treating a medical condition of a patient may include signal inputs to receive patient condition signals indicative of a state of inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), a signal processing circuit configured to process the patient condition signals and generate patient condition parameters indicative of the state of IBD using the processed patient condition signals, and a medical condition analyzer configured to analyze the patient condition parameters and determine the medical condition including the state of IBD using an outcome of the analysis. The patient condition parameters may include one or more physiological marker parameters each representative of a physiological marker of IBD and one or more quality of life parameters each being measure of quality of life of the patient.

US Patent:
20180153476, Jun 7, 2018
Filed:
Nov 29, 2017
Appl. No.:
15/826296
Inventors:
- St. Paul MN, US
Pramodsingh Hirasingh Thakur - Woodbury MN, US
Qi An - Blaine MN, US
Sandra Nagale - Bolton MA, US
Bryan Allen Clark - Forest Lake MN, US
Thomas Christen - Needham MA, US

International Classification:
A61B 5/00
A61B 5/0205
G06F 19/00
Abstract:
This document discusses, among other things, systems and methods for detecting stroke. A system may comprise a sensor circuit for sensing a physiological signal, and a second sensor to detect a physical state change. The physical state change may include a transition in physical activity, posture, or sleep state. A stroke risk circuit may detect, from the sensed physiological signal, a signal indicative of blood pressure surge (BPS) in response to one or more physical state changes. The system may generate a stroke risk indicator indicating a risk of developing an impending stroke event using the detected BPS. The system includes an output unit that outputs the stroke risk indicator to a user or a process.
