CIRCUITO DI RIVELAZIONE E SEGNALAZIONE DI ERRORI DI FUNZIONAMENTO DI APPARECCHI STIMOLATORI MEDICI

摘要

A current monitoring and control circuit for use with a medical stimulation device for monitoring the exciting current to stimulation electrodes connected to the device is provided having a disabling component to inactivate a signal generating circuit resident within the stimulator. Operation of this disabling component may be controlled by the functioning of sampling and detection components preferably connected to the output of the signal generator and triggered by an undesirable output signal surge. Included may be visual signaling and metering functions.
