A bone growth simulator system. A bioabsorbable electric circuit is encapsulated in a modified alginate known-time dissolving capsule having a rate of dissolving proportional to the thickness of the capsule. The electronic circuit is powered by a power source. The power source can be inside the capsule or outside the capsule, and can be bioabsorbable or at least biocompatible. An operational amplifier maintains constant current through the circuit. The current stimulates bone growth in bones adjacent to the circuit. The capsule and electric circuit dissolve after completion of the therapy.

Bioabsorbable or partially-bioabsorbable bone growth stimulator system and method for manufacturing a bioabsorbable or partially-bioabsorbable bone-regeneration stimulator system

A system for detecting valvular malfunction includes a monitoring device and a processor. The monitoring device includes a heart sound sensor configured to detect heart sounds of the patient, and a signal processor. The processor is configured to receive a signal representative of the detected heart sounds from the signal processor, wherein the processor is configured to compare the signal to a baseline signal stored in memory. The processor may be part of the monitoring device or may be part of an external device, or both.
