  • Medical device for generating a therapeutic parameter
    Patent number: 5431690
    Abstract: A device for generating a therapeutic value for a patient as a function of t least one variable parameter picked up within the body and constituting a first input value, with a change in the first parameter being a function of a second parameter which also constitutes an input value. The device includes circuitry for varying the generation of the therapeutic value by varying the second parameter so that the difference of the values of the first parameter, at selected limits of a variation range of the first parameter, constitutes a maximum in an intended treatment range of the patient. A memory retains a value of the second parameter for which the variation range of the first parameter constitutes a maximum. Control circuitry changes the therapeutic value as a function of the first parameter while maintaining the previously stored second parameter.
