Abstract: PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide improvements to an implant, a system and a method using a passive electrical conductor which routes an electrical current to either an external device or an implanted electrical device, to multiple target body tissues, and to selective target body tissues.SOLUTION: The passive electrical conductor extends from subcutaneous tissue located below either a surface cathodic electrode or a surface anodic electrode: (a) to the target tissues in order to route an electrical signal from the target body tissues to the device outside the body; (b) to the device in order to deliver the electrical current to the implanted electrical device; or (c) to the multiple target body tissues or to the selective target body tissues in order to stimulate the target body tissues. The conductor has specialized ends thereof for achieving such purposes.

Abstract: In one embodiment, a method includes implanting an implant entirely under the subject's skin. The implant includes a passive electrical conductor of sufficient length to extend from subcutaneous tissue located below one of a surface cathodic electrode and a surface anodic electrode to the tibial nerve. The surface electrodes are positioned in spaced relationship on the subject's skin, with one of the electrodes positioned over the pick-up end of the electrical conductor such that the portion of the current is transmitted through the conductor to the tibial nerve, and such that the current flows through the tibial nerve and returns to the other of the surface cathodic electrode and the surface anodic electrode. An electrical current is applied between the surface cathodic electrode and the surface anodic electrode to cause the portion of the electrical current to flow through the implant to stimulate the tibial nerve.

Abstract: Abstract An apparatus includes a percutaneous connection port configured to convey an electrical signal between an electrical device disposed outside of a body and an electrical member disposed within the body. The percutaneous connection port has a distal portion and a proximal portion. The proximal portion includes a surface configured to be accessible from a region of the body. The distal portion includes an anchor configured to be disposed within the body. The anchor has a curved shape about an axis substantially parallel to a skin of the body.

Abstract: In some embodiments, a method includes inserting at least a distal end portion of an insertion tool within a body. The distal end portion of the insertion tool is coupled to an electronic implant having a stimulation portion, a terminal portion and a substantially flexible conductor disposed between the stimulation portion and the terminal portion. The distal end portion of the insertion tool is moved within the body such that the stimulation portion of the electronic implant is disposed adjacent a target location and the terminal portion of the electronic implant is disposed beneath a skin of the body.
