Patent
Transcutaneous energy coupling using piezoelectric device
TL;DR: In this article, an energy transmission system for transmitting energy non-invasively from an external unit to an implanted medical device to recharge a battery in the medical device is presented.
Patent
Endocardial lead with multiple branches
TL;DR: In this paper, a proximal tubular portion is provided with a branch assembly (22) that is joined distally to two elongated distal lead branches (23a, 23b) with lead tips (24a, 24b).
Patent
Implantable cardiac lead with multiple shape memory polymer structures
TL;DR: In this article, a cardiac lead is provided that is capable of deforming in situ to accommodate difficult myocardial structures, including a connector for coupling to a cardiac stimulator and a flexible tubular sleeve coupled to the connector.
Patent
Cardiac lead with shape-memory structure
TL;DR: In this article, a cardiac stimulator lead is provided that includes a lead body that has a connector for coupling to a heart stimulator and a flexible insulating sleeve, which is composed of a thermally sensitive shapememory polymeric material.
