HEALTH APPLICATIONS FOR USING BIO-FEEDBACK TO CONTROL AN ELECTROMAGNETIC FIELD

摘要

An electrical system controlled, driven by and/or based on naturally occurring electrophysiological signals in a patient's body is used to produce useful electromagnetic fields for health applications and/or medical applications provided to the patient.

主权项

1. A system for providing therapy to a subject by using electromagnetic fields, the system comprising:
a field generator having electrical leads, the field generator being configured to generate an electromagnetic field in response to an electric current being induced across the electrical leads; one or more sensors configured to generate output signals conveying electrophysiological information related to one or more body parts of the subject; and a current source configured to induce an alternating current across the electrical leads, wherein the alternating current is dynamically controlled to correspond to the generated output signals such that one or more frequencies of the alternating current correspond to one or more frequencies of the generated output signals.
