Abstract: An implantable drug delivery device comprising a microencapsulated drug contained within at least one capsule, a carrier fluid that will dissolve the drug when freed from the capsule, a drug releaser for freeing the microencapsulated drug from the capsule, a reservoir in which the carrier fluid dissolves the drug, and an electromechanical pump to convey the dissolved drug to a catheter, through which the drug is delivered to a target site within a patient.

Abstract: The medicament delivery pump with a housing accommodating a compressible medicament reservoir comprises a hydraulic reservoir which is located in the housing and is provided with a rate control unit determining the flow of the hydraulic fluid into a receiver reservoir. The latter accordingly exerts pressure determining the rate of compression of the medicament reservoir and hence the rate of medicament infusion into patient's body.

Abstract: The system (10) for applying medicament therapies to human body comprises a medicament supply tank (20), a closed circulation line (50) with a carrier fluid (52), a measuring unit (100) for maintaining a predetermined medicament concentration in the carrier fluid, and a delivery area (60) for controlled transfer of the medicament from the carrier fluid into the human body. An independent claim is also included for a method for operating the proposed system. It involves measurement of the medicament in the carrier fluid.

Abstract: A system includes one or more sensors and a processor. Each of the sensors generates a signal as a function of at least one physiological parameter of a patient that may discernibly change when the patient is asleep. The processor monitors the physiological parameters, and determines whether the patient is asleep based on the parameters. In some embodiments, the processor determines plurality of sleep metric values, each of which indicates a probability of the patient being asleep, based on each of a plurality of physiological parameters. The processor may average or otherwise combine the plurality of sleep metric values to provide an overall sleep metric value that is compared to a threshold value in order to determine whether the patient is asleep.

Abstract: A medical system comprising means 40 for monitoring a signal that varies as a function of activity of a patient; means 46 for periodically determining an activity level of the patient based on the signal; means for associating each of the determined activity levels with a therapy parameter set currently used by a medical device to deliver a therapy to the patient when the activity level is determined; means for determining a value of each of a plurality of activity metrics for each of a plurality of therapy parameter sets based on activity levels associated with the therapy parameter sets; means 20 for presenting a list of the plurality of therapy parameter sets and activity metric values associated with the therapy parameter sets; and means for ordering the list according to a user selected one of the plurality of activity metrics.
