Abstract

Implanted medicament dispenser is programmed from an external controller which emits a radio signal. This signal specifies the desired delivery rate of the medicament. The actual delivery rate is measured and converted to a telementry signal which is transmitted from the implanted dispenser to the controller. Pref. the controller is body-worn by the patient and includes a switch-controlled manually by the patient to select one of a number of medicament delivery regimes. Pref. the controller records the regimes selected to calculate the total delivery of the medicament. The device dispenses insulin, glucose or heparin under the control of a patient. The dispenser is versatile and, although implanted can respond to unplanned activities of the patient.
