Headsets for positioning electronic devices

1. A headset for positioning an electronic device against a head of a patient, the headset comprising:

a flexible frame comprising a central frame and a curved structure extending from at least one end of the central frame;

the central frame comprising an interior channel and an exterior slot;

the curved structure comprising a shaft and a hook, wherein the hook of the curved structure is configured to extend from under an ear of a patient, wrap around a front edge of the ear, over the top of the ear, and to a rear edge of the ear, to grasp the ear of the patient and the shaft of the curved structure is movable within the interior channel of the central frame for accommodating a size of the head; and

a mount that engages the exterior slot, wherein the mount comprises a support base to which the electronic device can be attached,

wherein the mount is slidable along the central frame to position the electronic device.

2. The headset of claim 1 , wherein the flexible frame has a thickness of about 0.3 cm to about 0.5 cm.

3. The headset of claim 1 , wherein the flexible frame comprises one or more of acrylonitrile butadiene styrene, rubber, silicone, polyvinyl chloride, and thermoplastics.

4. The headset of claim 1 , wherein the shaft extends from within the interior channel of the central frame to form the hook configured to grasp the ear of the patient.

5. The headset of claim 1 , wherein the curved structure is configured such that the hook of the curved structure extends from the central frame above the ear to wrap around the ear.

6. The headset of claim 1 , wherein the curved structure is coupled to the central frame in a telescopic arrangement.

7. The headset of claim 1 , wherein a position of the curved structure relative to the central frame is securable via a friction fit.

8. The headset of claim 1 , wherein the curved structure is a first curved structure, the headset further comprising a second curved structure configured to grasp the other ear of the patient.

9. The headset of claim 1 , wherein a position of the mount relative to the flexible frame is securable via a friction fit.

10. The headset of claim 1 , wherein a position of the mount relative to the flexible frame is securable via a mechanical fastener.

11. The headset of claim 1 , wherein the mount further comprises a connector from which the support base extends, and wherein the connector at least partially surrounds the flexible frame.

12. The headset of claim 1 , wherein the mount comprises a first mechanical fastener to which a second mechanical fastener on the electronic device can be attached to secure the electronic device to the mount.

13. The headset of claim 1 , wherein the mount comprises a hook material section to which a loop material section on the electronic device can be attached to secure the electronic device to the mount.

14. The headset of claim 1 , wherein the electronic device comprises an antenna that is configured to communicate with a tissue stimulator implanted within the head.

15. The headset of claim 1 , wherein a flange of the mount engages the exterior slot of the central frame.

16. A system comprising:

an implantable device configured to be implanted in a head of a patient;

an electronic device configured to communicate with the implantable device; and

a headset for positioning the electronic device against the head of the patient, the headset comprising:

a flexible frame comprising a central frame and a curved structure extending from at least one end of the central frame;

the central frame comprising an interior channel and an exterior slot;

the curved structure comprising a shaft and a hook, wherein the hook of the curved structure is configured to extend from under an ear of a patient, wrap around a front edge of the ear, over the top of the ear, and to a rear edge of the ear, to grasp the ear of the patient and the shaft of the curved structure is movable within the interior channel of the central frame for accommodating a size of the head; and

a mount that engages the exterior slot, wherein the mount comprises a support base to which the electronic device can be attached,

wherein the mount is slidable along the central frame to position the electronic device.

17. The headset of claim 16 , wherein the shaft extends from within the interior channel of the central frame to form the hook configured to grasp the ear of the patient.

18. A headset for positioning an electronic device against a head of a patient, the headset comprising:

a flexible frame comprising a central frame and a curved structure extending from at least one end of the central frame;

the central frame comprising an interior channel;

the curved structure comprising a shaft and a hook, wherein the hook of the curved structure is configured to extend from under an ear of a patient, wrap around a front edge of the ear, over the top of the ear, and to a rear edge of the ear, to grasp the ear of the patient and the shaft of the curved structure is movable within the interior channel of the central frame for accommodating a size of the head; and

a mount that engages the central frame, wherein the mount comprises a support base to which the electronic device can be attached,

wherein the mount is slidable along the central frame to position the electronic device.

19. The headset of claim 18 , wherein a hook of the mount engages the central frame.

20. The headset of claim 18 , wherein the shaft extends from within the interior channel of the central frame to form the hook configured to grasp the ear of the patient.

21. The headset of claim 18 , wherein the curved structure is a first curved structure, the headset further comprising a second curved structure configured to grasp the other ear of the patient.

22. The headset of claim 18 , wherein the central frame is configured to extend along a base of the head when the curved structure is grasping an ear of the patient.

23. A system comprising the headset of claim 18 , and implantable device configured to be implanted in a head of a patient, and an electronic device configured to communicate with the implantable device,

wherein the headset positions the electronic device against the head of the patient near the implantable device.
