Method To Design Temporal Patterns Of Nervous System Stimulation

US Patent:
2022032, Oct 13, 2022
Filed:
May 2, 2022
Appl. No.:
17/734167
Inventors:
- Durham NC, US
David T. BROCKER - Cary NC, US
Alexander R. KENT - Durham NC, US
International Classification:
A61N 1/36
G16H 20/30
G16H 50/50
G16B 5/20
Abstract:
The present invention relates to methods that enable one to design temporal patterns for the optimal stimulation of a nervous system, one or more nerve cells, or nervous tissue. In one embodiment, the present invention relates to methods to design improved stimulation patterns and/or genetic algorithms for the optimal stimulation of a nervous system, one or more nerve cells, or nervous tissue. In one embodiment, the present invention utilizes a model-based design to achieve a more optimal stimulation pattern for use in connection with a nervous system, one or more nerve cells, or nervous tissue (e.g., a human nervous system). In another embodiment, the model-based design of the present invention utilizes a systematic search method to identify parameters (e.g., design variables) that minimize a cost function (e.g., optimize the fitness of a particular design). In one instance, the system and method of the present invention is demonstrated via optimal temporal patterns of electrical stimulation for a nervous system, one or more nerve cells, or nervous tissue.

System And Method To Managing Stimulation Of Select A-Beta Fiber Components

US Patent:
2020039, Dec 17, 2020
Filed:
Sep 1, 2020
Appl. No.:
17/008715
Inventors:
- Sylmar CA, US
Alexander Kent - Mountain View CA, US
Richard Williamson - Santa Monica CA, US
International Classification:
A61N 1/36
A61N 1/05
A61N 1/372
Abstract:
A computer implemented method and system is provided for managing neural stimulation therapy. The method comprises under control of one or more processors configured with program instructions. The method delivers a series of candidate stimulation waveforms having varied stimulation intensities to at least one electrode located proximate to nervous tissue of interest. A parameter defines the candidate stimulation waveforms is changed to vary the stimulation intensity. The method identifies a first candidate stimulation waveform that induces a paresthesia-abatement effect, while continuing to induce a select analgesic effect. The method further identifies a second candidate stimulation waveform that does not induce the select analgesic effect. The method sets a stimulation therapy based on the first and second candidate stimulation waveforms.

Systems And Methods Of Generating Stimulation Patterns

US Patent:
2020032, Oct 15, 2020
Filed:
Apr 15, 2019
Appl. No.:
16/384528
Inventors:
- Plano TX, US
Alexander Kent - Mountain View CA, US
International Classification:
A61N 1/36
A61N 1/05
G06N 5/04
Abstract:
The present disclosure provides systems and methods for generating stimulation patterns. A computing device includes a processor, and a memory device communicatively coupled to the processor. The memory device includes instructions that, when executed, cause the processor to provide a plurality of inputs to a multi-objective modified binary particle swarm optimization (MOMBPSO) algorithm, and apply the MOMBPSO to a computational circuit model using the plurality of inputs to generate a plurality of candidate stimulation patterns, wherein the MOMBPSO is applied to the computational circuit model to optimize both i) therapy efficacy and ii) power utilization.

Spinal Cord Stimulation Guidance System And Method Of Use

US Patent:
2019014, May 16, 2019
Filed:
Jan 15, 2019
Appl. No.:
16/248144
Inventors:
- Sylmar CA, US
Alexander Kent - Mountain View CA, US
International Classification:
A61B 5/00
A61N 1/372
A61N 1/05
A61N 1/378
A61N 1/36
A61B 5/04
A61B 5/053
Abstract:
A system and method for modeling patient-specific spinal cord stimulation (SCS) is disclosed. The system and method acquire impedance and evoked compound action potential (ECAP) signals from a lead positioned proximate to a spinal cord (SC). The lead includes at least one electrode. The system and method determine a patient-specific anatomical model based on the impedance and ECAP signals, and transform a dorsal column (DC) map template based on a DC boundary of the patient-specific anatomical model. Further, the system and method map the transformed DC map template to the patient-specific anatomical model. The system and method may also include the algorithms to solve extracellular and intracellular domain electrical fields and propagation along neurons. The system and method may also include the user interfaces to collect patient responses and compare with the patient-specific anatomical model as well as using the patient-specific anatomical model for guiding SCS programming.

A61N 1/05
Abstract:
The present disclosure provides systems and methods for disrupting neuronal oscillations. A neurostimulation system includes a stimulation lead comprising at least one contact, and an implantable pulse generator (IPG) communicatively coupled to the stimulation lead and configured to cause stimulation to be applied to a patient using no more than two contacts of the stimulation lead by causing a first burst of stimulation to be delivered, and causing a second burst of stimulation to be delivered within a neuronal refractory period that follows the first burst of stimulation.
