Embodiment Construction

[0020] As used herein, with respect to described elements, unless otherwise indicated, the terms "a" and "the" include at least one or more of the described elements, including combinations thereof. In addition, the terms "or" and "and" mean "and / or" and combinations thereof unless otherwise indicated. "Substantially" means that the shape or configuration of the described element does not necessarily have the shape or configuration of the mathematically precise description of the described element, but can have a shape or configuration that can be recognized by a person skilled in the art as having substantially or roughly the described element The shape or configuration of the described shape or configuration. As used herein, in the context of neural modulation, "stimulation" or "modulation" encompasses stimulating or inhibiting neural activity. A "patient" as described herein includes mammals, such as humans. By "improving," a patient's medical condition is better after tr...

Abstract

A neuromodulation system is provided herein. The system can include a neuromodulation device, an electronics package, which can be part of the neuromodulation device; an external controller; a sensor; and a computing device. The neuromodulation device can include a neuromodulation lead having a lead body configured to be bent to a desired shape and to maintain that shape in order to position the electrodes relative to neural and / or muscular structures when fully deployed. The neuromodulation device can also include an antenna including an upper and a lower coil electrically connected to each other in parallel. The computing device can execute a closed-loop algorithm based on physiological sensed data relating to sleep.

Description

[0001] Cross References to Related Applications [0002] This application claims the benefit of U.S. Provisional Application No. 62 / 841,978, filed May 2, 2019, the disclosure of which is incorporated herein by reference in its entirety. technical field [0003] An electrical stimulation system for improving sleep-disordered breathing is provided. Background technique [0004] Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) is the most common type of sleep apnea and is characterized by recurrent episodes of complete or partial upper airway obstruction during sleep despite effort to breathe, and is often correlated with blood oxygen saturation Lower associated. Individuals with OSA are rarely aware of dyspnea even after awakening. The problem is usually recognized by others observing the individual during the episode, or suspected because of its effects on the body. OSA is often accompanied by snoring. OSA can be associated with daytime symptoms (eg, excessive daytime sleep, decreased cogni...
