Abstract: A transdermal drug delivery system having at least one patch (20) with an electrosmotic, electro porous membrane (26) comprised of an inert biochemical substance which becomes actively electro-osmotic when an electric charge is passed through the membrane enabling a drug solution passing through to a skin surface to create an electroporative effect. The patch may be powered by a battery, an external power source (82), or self-powered by an auto-bio-fuel cell which acts as a battery during drug solution saturation. Multiple patches may be configured as a linked patch unit for use with a flexible cuff apparatus (70) to provide circumferential treatment of a body part. A network of supply tubes (66) may be connected to an external reservoir (68) to provide a slow supply of medicated fluid to each patch. A titration regulator (72) is in communication with the transdermal patch to regulate permanent flow to the skin.

Abstract: A medication dispensing system and method utilizing a dispensing tube on a therapist's hand for receiving medicated and non-medicated fluids, lotions and gels from a reservoir to be disposed onto a patient by manual contact by the therapist is disclosed.

Abstract: A medication dispensing system and method utilizing a hollow ring applicator disposed on a therapist's finger for receiving medicated and non-medicated fluids, lotions and gels from a reservoir to be disposed onto a patient by manual contact by the therapist is disclosed.

Abstract: An automated transdermal robotic treatment and drug delivery system to provide multimodal therapies and treatments to a patient. The movement of a robotic arm is preprogrammed to apply such treatment and medicine delivery to the skin of the patient in a desired sequence of movement. The robotic arm can fuirther be used for diagnosis and other medical treatments.

Abstract: A flexible cuff for wrapping around a part of a limb, that is comprised of multiple biosensing patch units of a required size and shape to fit the body contour for applying to an area of skin. The cuff has an array of flexible porous (polymer) electrodes held at constant potential with alternating polarities. A network of supply tubes connected to an external liquid reservoir provides a slow supply of medicated fluid to each electrode. A pump/titration regulator is in communication with the transdermal electrode to regulate permeant flow to the skin. An electric and an electromagnetic field applied through the cuff then causes the drug to be rapidly absorbed throughout the skin. The electrodes within the cuff, or the applicator pads which it is comprised of, can be additionally used for applying electromagnetic, Transcutaneous Nerve Stimulation, and for Electrical Muscle Stimulation.

Abstract: A magnetotherapy apparatus includes an applicator wrap segmented into a grid of hinged panels. The wrap is adapted to be placed around an injured body member to provide a brace or preform for a conventional cast. Each of the panels further includes a magnetic coil for generating an electromagnetic field directionally oriented perpendicular to a target area. The magnetic fields generated in the adjacent panels are of opposite polarity and cumulatively interact for deeper magnetic flux penetration. An electrostimulation component includes stimulator pads which are selectively energized to provide muscle and/or transcutaneous nerve stimulation for pain sedation. Alternatively, the stimulator pads are used for an electrophoretic pharmaceutical delivery system wherein electrically charged porous pads are in fluid communication with a drug medium.
