CA 2569618

Improved assemblies, systems, and methods provide an implantable pulse generator for prosthetic or therapeutic stimulation of muscles, nerves, or central nervous system tissue, or any combination. The implantable pulse generator is sized and configured to be implanted subcutaneous a tissue region. The implantable pulse generator includes an electrically conductive case of a laser welded titanium material. Control circuitry is located within the case, the control circuitry including a rechargeable power source, a receive coil for receiving an RF magnetic field to recharge the power source, and a microcontroller for control of the implantable pulse generator. Improved assemblies, systems, and methods also provide a stimulation system for prosthetic or therapeutic stimulation of muscles, nerves, or central nervous system tissue, or any combination. The stimulation system provides at least one electrically conductive surface, a lead connected to the electrically conductive surface, and an implantable pulse generator electrically connected to the lead.

Ensembles, systèmes et procédés améliorés pour générateur d'impulsions implantable destiné à assurer une stimulation prothétique et thérapeutique de muscles, nerfs ou tissus du système nerveux, ou de toute combinaison y relative. Le générateur d'impulsions implantable est dimensionné et configuré pour être implanté dans un région tissulaire sous-cutanée. Ledit générateur comprend un boîtier électriquement conducteur en matériau de titane soudé par laser. Ce boîtier abrite un circuit de commande avec source d'énergie rechargeable, bobine réceptrice recevant un champ magnétique RF pour la recharge de la source d'énergie et un micro-contrôleur commandant le générateur d'impulsions implantable. Ces ensembles, systèmes et procédés améliorés constituent en outre un système de stimulation prothétique ou thérapeutique des muscles, nerfs ou tissus du système nerveux central ou de toute combinaison y relative. Ce système de stimulation comporte au moins une surface électriquement conductrice, un câble connecté à cette surface, et un générateur d'impulsions implantable raccordé électriquement au câble.
