<p><P>PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide an apparatus for adjustment and sensing of gastric band pressure. <P>SOLUTION: An apparatus is operable to transfer a fluid and comprises a housing and a fluid reservoir within the housing. An actuator is operationally engaged with the fluid reservoir. The actuator is operable to effect a transfer of the fluid out of or into the fluid reservoir. A sensor is in fluid communication with the fluid reservoir. The sensor is operable to sense a physical parameter of the fluid that is in communication with the fluid reservoir as the fluid flows out of or into the fluid reservoir. An indicator is in communication with the sensor. The indicator is operable to display the physical parameter sensed by the sensor. The apparatus may be used to inject fluid into or withdraw fluid from an implanted gastric band system or for a variety of other uses. <P>COPYRIGHT: (C)2008,JPO&INPIT</p> |
