Closed-Loop.jpgAdvanced solutions for chronic diseases

The Nexeon team is developing and commercializing platforms that address large unmet needs in neurological and cardiovascular diseases.   We believe that "smart" devices will enable Doctors to make more effective therapy choices for their patients.  These devices will lower costs to the healthcare system, lower the costs to the caregiver and keep a patient in the therapeutic range of the treatment more often.   

Our Platform Technology

The thin implantable pulse generator (IPG) provides two connectors for electrode leads with up to 8 contacts each. The heart of the IPG is a custom chip designed to deliver current in multiple contacts independently and simultaneously, making it perfectly suitable for selective electrical stimulation. The chip also incorporates a state-of-the-art recording system to measure evoked potentials, or to monitor stimulation and the system’s integrity.

  • Capable of independent stimulation of up to 32 connected electrodes
  • Any conceivable waveform can be programmed; e.g. biphasic pulses, bursts, sine wave, anodal blocking
  • Multi-polar stimulation (uni-polar, bi-polar, tri-polar)
  • Capable of high-frequency and burst stimulation
  • Capable of recording a variety of neural activity due very low noise amplifiers and artifact filters.
  • Capable of low-power smart stimulation algorithms to save battery time
