METHOD AND DEVICE FOR PRODUCING THERAPEUTIC ACTION Russian patent published in 2003 - IPC

FIELD: medicine; medical engineering. SUBSTANCE: method involves sending electric signals with preset initial parameter values to inductor unit positioned on patient body as impulse sequences of controlled frequency, relative pulse duration and amplitude during given time interval. N inductor units are distributed over the whole patient body. When applying magnetic action, cardiac intervals are taken and analyzed and regulatory system activity parameter is calculated by applying moving sampling method. Its current value is compared to reference normal value. Their deviation being found, electric signal impulse sequence parameters are varied using extremum search method so that absolute value of difference between the current regulatory system activity parameter value and the reference value tends to zero. The absolute value of difference exceeding maximum permissible level, treatment canceling and warning signal are formed. Device has a system of N inductor units to be arranged on patient body, unit for building impulse sequences and computation unit. Device additionally has unit for recording cardiac signals connected to computation unit input. Computation unit output is connected to adaptation unit input. Information outputs of the latter one are connected to adder matrix inputs, signal output being connected to switching input of N inductors system. Control inputs of N inductors system are connected to adder matrix outputs, the other adder matrix inputs being connected to outputs of unit for building impulse sequences. EFFECT: enhanced effectiveness of treatment. 6 cl, 2 dwg
