    摘要: A method of controlling operation of a neurostimulation device comprises receiving, by the neurostimulation device, an indication of a physiological search area of a subject for delivering electrical neurostimulation and a prioritized search list of neurostimulation parameters for neurostimulation therapy delivered to the search area; delivering the neurostimulation therapy to the search area and varying the neurostimulation parameters according to the parameter priority, wherein a highest priority parameter is varied first while lower priority parameters are held constant; determining the optimum value of the highest priority parameter; delivering neurostimulation to the search area using the determined optimum value of the highest priority parameter and varying one or more lower priority parameters according to the parameter priority; and determining optimum lower priority parameters for the neurostimulation.

    摘要: Described herein is an implantable device configured to detect impedance characteristic of a tissue. In certain exemplary devices, the implantable device comprises (a) an ultrasonic transducer configured to emit an ultrasonic backscatter encoding information relating to an impedance characteristic of a tissue based on a modulated current flowing through the ultrasonic transducer; (b) an integrated circuit comprising (i) a variable frequency power supply electrically connected to a first electrode and a second electrode; (ii) a signal detector configured to detect an impedance, voltage, or current in a circuit comprising the variable frequency power supply, the first electrode, the second electrode, and the tissue; and (iii) a modulation circuit configured to modulate the current flowing through the ultrasonic transducer based on the detected impedance, voltage, or current; and the first electrode and the second electrode configured to be implanted into the tissue in electrical connection with each other through the tissue. Further described are systems including one or more implantable devices and an interrogator for operating the implantable device, methods of measuring impedance characteristic of a tissue in a subject, and methods of monitoring or characterizing a tissue in a subject.

    摘要: The invention refers to a system for delivering a machine-learning based behavioral intervention for the care of withdraw symptoms such as Neonatal Abstinence Syndrome in neonates. The system obtains biosensor or behavioral information about a patient from a wearable device on the patient and makes a determinative recommendation or takes appropriate action based on its evaluation. The biosensor and behavioral information is collected by way of a wearable device over progressive periods of time. When the data is indicative of a need for treatment because the patient is exhibiting symptoms or indicating relapse traits, this information is sent to the system for evaluation. When the data is indicative of a need for treatment, action is taken in the form of a recommendation or when the device is configured to support direct treatment, direct action can be taken to modify alleviate the patient.
