摘要:
An active implantable medical device configured for chronic implant in a patient includes a housing. At least one of a radio frequency (RF) module configured to generate a therapeutic output signal in a form of a pulsed a RF signal, and deliver the signal to neural tissue of the patient, and a health information module configured to collect information directed to a mechanical integrity of an orthopedic implant device and an activity of the patient, is located within the housing. The housing is configured to be associated with an orthopedic implanted device through attachment to a piece of implant hardware, or engagement with a passageway through the orthopedic implanted device. Alternatively, an active implantable medical device is incorporated and integrated into a component of an orthopedic implanted device.
