Example systems and techniques for denervation, for example, renal denervation. In some examples, a processor determines one or more tissue characteristics of tissue proximate a target nerve and a blood vessel. The processor may generate, based on the one or more tissue characteristics, an estimated volume of influence of denervation therapy delivered by a therapy delivery device disposed within the blood vessel. The processor may generate a graphical user interface including a graphical representation of the tissue proximate the target nerve and the blood vessel and a graphical representation of the estimated volume of influence.

Systems and methods for measuring the magnetic fields generated by renal nerves before and/or after neuromodulation therapy are disclosed herein. One method for measuring the magnetic field of target nerves during a neuromodulation procedure includes positioning a neuromodulation catheter at a target site within a renal blood vessel of a human patient near the target nerves, and detecting a measurement of the magnetic field generated by the target nerves. The method can further include determining, based on the measurement of the magnetic field, a location of the target nerves, a location of ablation at the target nerves, and/or a percentage the target nerves were ablated by delivered neuromodulation energy.

Devices, methods and systems for transmitting signals through a device located in a blood vessel of an animal, for stimulating and/or sensing activity of media proximal to the device, wherein the media includes tissue and/or fluid.

A method to apply a nerve inhibiting cloud surrounding a blood vessel includes creating a treatment plan, wherein the treatment plan prescribes application of the nerve inhibiting cloud towards at least a majority portion of a circumference of a blood vessel wall, and applying the nerve inhibiting cloud towards the majority portion of the circumference of the blood vessel wall for a time sufficient to inhibit a function of a nerve that surrounds the blood vessel wall.

An electrical pulse stimulation system includes a pulse generator, a first lead electrically connected to the pulse generator, and a second lead electrically connected to the pulse generator. The pulse generator is configured to deliver a left sacral nerve electrical pulse stimulation signal to the first lead and deliver a right sacral nerve electrical pulse stimulation signal to the second lead. The pulse generator is further configured to determine and adjust a stimulation quantity proportion of the left sacral nerve electrical pulse stimulation signal and the right sacral nerve electrical pulse stimulation signal according to a sacral nerve data of a patient.

Aspects of embodiments pertain to systems configured to perform neuromonitoring data analysis, by employing the following: receiving patient data comprising data that are descriptive of at least one physical stimulus applied to a mammalian subject for responsively generating at least one signal in a plurality of neural structures of the subject's nervous system; and sensor data descriptive of at least one neurophysiological response signal generated in response the applied physical stimulus. The systems are further configured to determine, based on the received patient data descriptive of the at least one physical stimulus and the generated response signal, at least one characteristic with respect to at least one of the plurality of neural structures of the patient.

The present invention describes a method for determining in real time the level of activation of the trigeminovascular system. In particular, said invention can be applied in the field of medical devices capable of determining the activation index of the trigeminovascular system, mainly on the basis of the use of biomedical signals of hemodynamic character. The method establishes objective criteria for determining the degree of activation and is described as the result of the application of modelling and data fusion techniques. The method is also based on another type of signals, such as ambient signals, in order to improve statistically in real time the degree of activation determined.

A method and an electrode for monitoring electrical activity in a nerve are provided along with a method of fabricating such an electrode. The electrode includes a cuff formed from a chronically-implantable material that, when implanted, extends at least partially around an external periphery of the nerve. A plurality of contacts are supported by the cuff to be arranged adjacent to different regions of the nerve distributed along a transverse direction of the nerve when the cuff is implanted. A multiplexer is coupled to the cuff to be implanted for receiving electrical signals introduced to the contacts by the nerve and multiplexing, in vivo, the electrical signals to be transmitted to an external receiver over a shared communication channel.
