Patent application numberDescriptionPublished
20100016935MEDICAL IMPLANTABLE LEAD - A implantable lead an elongate body including a flexible insulating tube, and a tubular conductor layer formed of multiple separate strip conductors, which are arranged at the outer surface of the insulating tube and extend along the length thereof.01-21-2010
20100037457METHOD FOR MANUFACTURING AN ACTIVE FIXATION ELECTRODE - In a method for manufacturing active fixation helices for the stimulation and/or sensing of organs, an elongated helix precursor body is produced that has one or more electrical conductors surrounded by an insulating material. This helix precursor body is then shaped into a helix, material removed in predetermined places in order to expose the areas of the conductors which will be used as electrodes in the final product. The body is coated with an electrically conducting biocompatible coating which is subsequently partly removed in continuous loops from around the electrodes in order to electrically insulate them from each other and to ensure that the electrically active areas of the electrodes are of the correct dimensions.02-18-2010
20100114279MEDICAL IMPLANTABLE LEAD - A medical implantable lead has a proximal end and a distal end, and a flexible flat elongate body. The elongate body includes a layer of strip conductors extending along the length of the flat elongate body, a top insulating layer, and a bottom insulating layer. The layer of strip conductors is sealingly enclosed between the top and bottom insulating layers, and at least a major portion of the flat elongate body is twisted into an elongate helical portion having a central cavity extending longitudinally of the helical portion.05-06-2010
20100168806DEVICE AND METHOD FOR TREATING CARDIAC TISSUE OF A HEART OF A PATIENT WITH THERAPEUTIC LIGHT USING PHOTOBIOMODULATION - For treatment of cardiac tissue of a heart of a patient with therapeutic light using an implantable medical device connectable to at least one medical lead carrying electrodes and at least one fixation element that fixes the lead at a fixation area of the cardiac tissue, therapeutic light is emitted toward the at least one fixation area of cardiac tissue and/or toward a contact area between the at least one electrode and cardiac tissue using an intracorporeal light emitter.07-01-2010

20100280563DEVICE AND METHOD FOR DETECTING AND TREATING A MYOCARDIAL INFARCTION USING PHOTOBIOMODULATION - In an implantable medical device and a method for treating cardiac tissue of a heart of a patient with therapeutic light, a myocardial infarction is detected and a location the myocardial infarction is identified. A therapy session is initiated by selectively activating one or more of a number of light emitting units arranged in at least one medical lead connectable to the implantable medical device, to emit therapeutic light toward the detected location of the myocardial infarction upon detection of an occurrence of the myocardial infarction.11-04-2010
