METHOD OF APPLYING DEVICE FOR TREATING DYSFUNCTION OF UPPER RESPIRATORY WAYS IN HORSES Russian patent published in 2014 - IPC A61N1/36 A61N1/18 A61B5/08 

FIELD: veterinary medicine.

SUBSTANCE: upon detection of an increased level of activity of the horse a therapeutic signal is generated to enforce at least one muscle involved in the shift of the laryngeal anatomical structure with respect to the upper airway of the horse. The therapeutic signal is given to the upper airways tissue for maintaining unobstructed airflow. At that the pacemaker is used in the form of a processor made with the ability to generate the therapeutic signal based on the said detected increased level of activity to enforce the muscle involved in the shift of laryngeal anatomical structure with respect to the upper airway of the horse.

EFFECT: invention enables to improve the efficiency of treatment which is achieved by the stimulation of the upper airway muscles synchronously with the periods of the respiratory cycles of the horse and by functioning of the stimulating system only during an increased physical activity.
