20150034081 | THERAPEUTIC DIAPHRAGM STIMULATION DEVICE AND METHOD - A device and method for treating a variety of conditions, disorders or diseases with diaphragm/phrenic nerve stimulation is provided. | 02-05-2015 |
20130197601 | DEVICE AND METHOD FOR INDEPENDENTLY STIMULATING HEMIDIAPHRAGMS - A device and method for treating a subject is provided where electrical stimulation may be separately provided to each hemidiaphragm to cause diaphragm contraction. Fatigue may be avoided among other possible benefits. Each hemidiaphragm may also be stimulated with different stimulation parameters. Stimulation may be smoothly transitioned between hemidiaphragms. Such stimulation may provide an increase in functional residual capacity or other therapeutic effects. | 08-01-2013 |
20120158091 | THERAPEUTIC DIAPHRAGM STIMULATION DEVICE AND METHOD - A device and method for treating a variety of conditions, disorders or diseases with diaphragm/phrenic nerve stimulation is provided. | 06-21-2012 |
20120109249 | MULTIMODE DEVICE AND METHOD FOR CONTROLLING BREATHING - A device and method is provided for therapeutic stimulating, augmenting, manipulating and/or controlling breathing, in combination with stimulation of auxiliary respiratory nerves or muscles including the upper airway tract, chest wall muscles or abdominal muscles. Stimulation may be provided, for example, to augment breathing or to prevent closing of the upper airway during therapeutic stimulation. Stimulation may be also provided to the Hypoglossal nerve during exhalation. | 05-03-2012 |
20110288609 | THERAPEUTIC DIAPHRAGM STIMULATION DEVICE AND METHOD - A device and method for treating a variety of conditions, disorders or diseases with diaphragm/phrenic nerve stimulation is provided. | 11-24-2011 |
20110230932 | DEVICE AND METHOD FOR INDEPENDENTLY STIMULATING HEMIDIAPHRAGMS - A device and method for treating a subject is provided where electrical stimulation may be separately provided to each hemidiaphragm to cause diaphragm contraction. Fatigue may be avoided among other possible benefits. Each hemidiaphragm may also be stimulated with different stimulation parameters. Stimulation may be smoothly transitioned between hemidiaphragms. Such stimulation may provide an increase in functional residual capacity or other therapeutic effects. | 09-22-2011 |
20080288015 | Diaphragm stimulation device and method for use with cardiovascular or heart patients - A method for treating a patient is provided where a sensed cardiac rhythm is used to adjust electrical stimulation that is used to activate a diaphragm to cause contraction. A cardiac rhythm management device in combination with a diaphragm stimulation device is also provided which includes a cardiac stimulation device configured to provide stimulation to control cardiac rhythm of a subject; and an electrical stimulation device configured to provided electrical stimulation to a subject to activate a diaphragm to increase functional residual capacity of the subject. | 11-20-2008 |
20080288010 | Subcutaneous diaphragm stimulation device and method for use - A cardiovascular treatment assembly is provided including a cardiac rhythm management device and an electrical stimulation device configured to elicit a diaphragm contraction to thereby treat heart failure. | 11-20-2008 |
