Abstract
The present technology is generally directed to implantable medical device systems for stimulating tissue, such as heart tissue. In some embodiments, an implantable medical device system includes a controller-transmitter and a receiver-stimulator in operable communication with one another. The receiver-stimulator can be implanted at the heart of a patient. The controller-transmitter can be configured to transmit an acoustic signal to the receiver-stimulator, which receives the acoustic signal and converts the acoustic signal to electrical energy for delivery to the heart via one or more stimulation electrodes. The receiver-stimulator can further be configured to transmit a radiofrequency signal to the controller-transmitter including information about sensed physiological parameters of the patient, status information, and the like.
