#$%^&*AU2014201907B220150618.pdf#####Abstract A system for applying therapy to an internal anatomical feature of a body of a patient comprising, an external component including an external antenna configured to be placed 5 above a skin layer of a patient, the external component including a memory configured to store therapy programs and therapy schedules, the external component also including a user interface configured to receive input from a user and to display output to the user, the input including a selection of one of the therapy programs and one of the therapy schedules and an implantable component for placement in the body of the patient beneath 10 the skin layer, the implantable component including an implanted antenna configured to communicate with the external antenna across the skin layer through radiofrequency communication, the implantable component being configured to receive the selected therapy program and the selected therapy schedule from the external component via the external and implanted antennas, the implantable component being adapted to be 15 selectively configured into one of a training mode, a placebo mode, and a delivery mode, the implantable component being configured to apply therapy to the internal anatomical feature in accordance with the selected therapy program and the selected therapy schedule when configured in the delivery mode, and the implantable component being configured to refrain from generating electrical therapy signals when configured in the 20 training mode, and the implantable component being configured to supply therapy signals to a resistor located within the implantable component to drain an internal power source of the implantable component when configured in the placebo mode, wherein an external charger interacts with the patient as if therapy is being applied when the therapy signals are applied to the resistor during the placebo mode. 52587751 (GHMalters) P82937AU I
