System and method for determining an adjustment to a gastric band based on satiety state data and weight loss data
First Claim
1. A portable gastric band information system for determining an adjustment amount to a gastric band implanted in a patient, comprising:
- a memory unit;
a display unit; and
a micro controller connected to the memory unit and the display unit, the micro controller configured to;
use gastric band pressure data for the gastric band,receive weight loss data for the patient,receive satiety state data from the patient,receive a postoperative office visit sequence number, anddetermine which one algorithm of at least a plurality of different algorithms for the adjustment of the gastric band should be used to adjust the gastric band based on the postoperative office visit sequence number received,select the determined algorithm, andbased on the selected algorithm, the micro controller is configured to determine an adjustment of the gastric band for the patient by analyzing the satiety state data of the patient and the weight loss data of the patient, andtransmit the determined adjustment to a controller for the gastric band.

Abstract
A system and method for determining an adjustment to a gastric band, and more specifically to determining an adjustment to a gastric band based on satiety state data and weight loss data. The gastric band information system can determine an adjustment of the gastric band using a gastric band adjustment algorithm. The gastric band information system can wirelessly transmit the adjustment to the gastric band. The gastric band information system can receive gastric band data, weight data, glucose data, and/or blood pressure data and display a gastric band chart, a weight chart, and/or a blood pressure chart. The gastric band information system can also receive gastric band implantation data, patient data, and/or any other medical data. The various data can be received from a computer or medical devices in a wired or wireless manner.
