US Patent:
20120259384, Oct 11, 2012
Filed:
Apr 7, 2011
Appl. No.:
13/082097
Inventors:
Stephen Trier - Mayfield Heights OH, US
Jeffrey A. Weisgarber - Jewett OH, US
Richard J. Polefko - Parma OH, US
Assignee:
GREATBATCH, LTD. - Clarence NY
International Classification:
A61N 1/36
US Classification:
607 46
Abstract:
A method, device and/or system for generating arbitrary scalable waveforms of a desired shape that can be used for generating a stimulation pulse for medical purposes such as for spinal cord stimulation therapy, where scaling function(s) can be used to scale arbitrary waveforms for increased flexibility and which can also be used for charge balancing purposes as well.

System And Method Of Establishing A Protocol For Providing Electrical Stimulation With A Stimulation System To Treat A Patient

View page
US Patent:
20120310300, Dec 6, 2012
Filed:
May 31, 2011
Appl. No.:
13/118775
Inventors:
Norbert Kaula - Arvada CO, US
Yohannes Iyassu - Denver CO, US
Richard J. Polefko - Parma OH, US
Steven E. Wilder - Ashland OH, US
Scott G. Leyh - Cleveland Heights OH, US
International Classification:
A61N 1/36
US Classification:
607 46
Abstract:
A stimulation system, such as a spinal cord stimulation (SCS) system, having a programmer and a patient feedback device for establishing a protocol to treat a patient. The programmer uses a computer assisted stimulation programming procedure for establishing the protocol. Also described are methods of treating a patient with a spinal cord stimulation system including the programmer and the patient feedback device.

Identifying An Area For Electrical Stimulation To Treat A Patient

View page
US Patent:
20130060299, Mar 7, 2013
Filed:
Sep 7, 2011
Appl. No.:
13/226897
Inventors:
Richard J. Polefko - Parma OH, US
Steven E. Wilder - Ashland OH, US
Scott G. Leyh - Cleveland Heights OH, US
International Classification:
A61N 1/36
US Classification:
607 46
Abstract:
A stimulation system, such as a spinal cord stimulation (SCS) system, having a programmer for identifying an area for electrical stimulation to treat a patient. The programmer includes a communication interface, a display screen, and a user interface. The communication interface communicates with the electrical stimulation generator to generate electrical stimulation and the display screen displays a patient model. The user interface receives user input identifying an area of pain on the patient model via a selection of the area of the body part. The programmer then associates the area of pain identified with a spinal column location, and displays on the display screen a suggested medical lead position and/or a suggested stimulation area on an image of a spinal column based on the step of associating.

Positioning Leads On Patient Model Using A Graphical User Interface

View page
US Patent:
20130060300, Mar 7, 2013
Filed:
Sep 7, 2011
Appl. No.:
13/226939
Inventors:
Richard J. Polefko - Parma OH, US
Steven E. Wilder - Ashland OH, US
Scott G. Leyh - Cleveland Heights OH, US
International Classification:
A61N 1/36
US Classification:
607 46
Abstract:
A stimulation system, such as a spinal cord stimulation (SCS) system, for storing position information of an implanted medical lead implanted in a patient. A communication unit is configured to receive, from a first programmer, position data that indicates an actual position of the implanted medical lead with respect to a spinal column of the patient and an anatomically correct image of the spinal column. The communication unit is further configured to forward the position data, and to transmit both to a second programmer. The second programmer is then able to display a representation of the implanted medical lead on the anatomically correct image in an anatomically correct location and in an actual orientation based on the position data.

Configuring Electrical Stimulation To Treat A Patient

View page
US Patent:
20130060301, Mar 7, 2013
Filed:
Sep 7, 2011
Appl. No.:
13/226956
Inventors:
Richard J. Polefko - Parma OH, US
Steven E. Wilder - Ashland OH, US
Scott G. Leyh - Cleveland Heights OH, US
International Classification:
A61N 1/36
US Classification:
607 46
Abstract:
A stimulation system, such as a spinal cord stimulation (SCS) system, having a programmer with a user interface. The programmer determines a position of an implanted medical lead with respect to a patient's spinal column. The programmer overlays the medical lead, an initial stimulation field, and an initial target stimulation area within the initial stimulation field on an image of the spinal column. A user enters, via the user interface, graphical manipulations of displayed boundaries of the initial stimulation field and the initial target stimulation area. The graphical manipulations of the stimulation field and the target stimulation field are independent of each other and they may move and/or alter the shape of the boundaries. The programmer then determines stimulation parameters to drive the implanted medical lead to generate the displayed stimulation field and target stimulation field as manipulated by the user.

Automated Search To Identify A Location For Electrical Stimulation To Treat A Patient

View page
US Patent:
20130060302, Mar 7, 2013
Filed:
Sep 7, 2011
Appl. No.:
13/226969
Inventors:
Richard J. Polefko - Parma OH, US
Steven E. Wilder - Ashland OH, US
International Classification:
A61N 1/36
US Classification:
607 46
Abstract:
A stimulation system, such as a spinal cord stimulation (SCS) system, having an automated search to establish a program to treat a patient with electrical stimulation. The stimulation system includes an electrical stimulation generator, a medical lead coupled to the electrical stimulation generator, and a programmer with a communication interface, a display screen, and a user interface. The display screen displays an image of a spinal column and a position of the medical lead relative to the spinal column. The system includes an automated search that stimulates a series of regions and receives patient feedback via the user interface. The system then stimulates a series of subregions within a subset of the regions based on the feedback, receives additional feedback, and identifies a subset of the subregions location for stimulation based on the additional feedback.
