ABSTRACT:
An apparatus for the biofeedback control of body functions is proposed having at least one sensor for detecting biological body functions, a data memory for storing comparison values, a control unit or microprocessor (9, 16) and a therapy member, the control means (9, 16) activating the therapy system as a function of the measured values detected by the sensor and the comparison values. The therapy systems has a pump for the intravenous, intra-arterial, oral or intraluminal administration and a drug reservoir connected to the pump. The control unit and/or therapy means is provided with a memory, which stores the therapy objectives for the body functions with associated drug doses as a function of the detected measured values and comparison values. The pump is activated in such a way that it delivers the drug to the desired administration point from the reservoir in accordance with the predetermined doses, the sensor continuously detecting the effects of the drugs and in accordance with the action, a change is made to the activation of the pump.
