摘要:
A system and method for determining, during a recharge session, an amount of time until a subsequent recharge session is required to charge a rechargeable power source of an implantable medical device. A model allows a determination of the time until recharge without suspending charging during the recharge session by basing the determination on an initial measured battery voltage and a present current into the rechargeable power source. Alternatively, charging is suspended during the recharge session, and voltage measurements are taken, after which time charging is resumed, without patient input or suspending the recharge session.
