Patent
Leadless tissue stimulation systems and methods
TL;DR: In this paper, a controller-transmitter is activated at a remote tissue location to transmit/deliver acoustic energy through the body to a receiver-stimulator at a target tissue location.
Patent
Systems and methods for implantable leadless tissue stimulation
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors used electrical stimulation of the spine, where vibrational energy from a source is received by an implanted device and converted to electrical energy and the converted electrical energy is used by implanted electrodes to stimulate the pre-determined brain site.
Patent
Implantable transducer devices
TL;DR: The use of near isotropic transducers allows the devices to be implanted with less concern regarding the orientation relative to an acoustic energy source as discussed by the authors, and the transducers or transducers having relatively small sizes, typically less than ½ the wavelength of the acoustic source, enhance isotropy.
Patent
Methods and apparatus for determining cardiac stimulation sites using hemodynamic data
TL;DR: In this article, the authors present a method for determining an endocardial implantation site for implanting an electrode, such as a leadless stimulation electrode, by delivering sufficient electrical energy for initiation of cardiac activation to a plurality of different test locations at the heart of a patient.
Patent
Methods and systems for heart failure treatments using ultrasound and leadless implantable devices
TL;DR: In this paper, a controller-transmitter device is used to deliver ultrasound energy into cardiac tissue in order to directly improve cardiac function and/or to energize one or more implanted receiver-stimulator devices that transduce the ultrasound energy to electrical energy to perform excitatory and non-excitatory treatments for heart failure.
