Abstract (en)
[origin: WO2021003496A1] An implantable pulse generator is provided comprising a non-metallic shell adjacent a header. The header abuts an optical window in the shell. The header aligns a series of surgical or percutaneous leads with the optical window. The leads incorporate optical fibers, electrodes and contacts which distribute stimulation signals. Behind the optical window, a set of optical devices is provided which transmit or receive light from the fibers. Signal processors are provided to interpret the signals from the optical fibers, and to mitigate a continuous inductive charging function.
