    摘要: Apparatus for the delivery of an electrical field which facilitates the intracellular delivery of a therapeutic agent to a predetermined site within the tissue of a patient. The apparatus will comprise a plurality of penetrating electrodes arranged in a predetermined spatial relationship, each electrode with a cross sectional area contributing to the total cross sectional area of all electrodes, and structural means incorporating an inanimate source of energy operatively connected to the plurality of electrodes for deploying the electrodes, wherein the source of energy is sufficient to impart a force of at least 1000 pounds per square inch (0.7 kilogram per square millimeter) of total cross sectional area of all electrodes at the initiation of the deployment of the electrodes. The apparatus will also comprise means for generating an electrical field which facilitates the intracellular delivery of a therapeutic agent, which means is operatively connected to said electrodes a least in their deployed state.

    摘要: The invention relates to a system for the prevention of needle tract bacterial infections, comprising:
    - a percutaneous surgical instrument (1) percutaneously introducible into a tissue (3) of a patient, such as a biopsy needle, and having an outer surface made of an electrically conductive material;
    - a contact electrode (4) applicable to the skin (3a) of a patient;
    - a silver coating or silver element (P) arranged on or forming part of the instrument (1), and configured, sized and provided so as to break down by means of electrochemical release when a current is applied thereto, releasing silver ions into its surroundings; and
    - an electric current generator (2) arranged and configured for generating a current and inducing the temporary circulation thereof between the instrument (1) acting as an anode, the tissue (3) and the contact electrode (4) acting as a cathode, respectively, with a magnitude and duration which are determined for producing a massive and sudden release of silver ions for the purpose of preventing post-treatment bacterial infections.

    摘要: Systems and methods according to the present invention relate to a substantially extracorporeal pulse generator system for electrical stimulation of one or more target nerve or their branches using one or more preferably percutaneous leads each having one or more electrodes implanted in, on, around, or near the target nerve. Improved systems include a patch assembly configured to be adhesively mounted to a patient's skin and an electrical stimulation assembly configured to be mechanically mounted to the patch assembly. A preferred patch assembly, in addition to provide mechanical mounting of the stimulation assembly, provides a power source for the stimulation assembly, and may further serve as a return electrode. Associated system components and methods of use are also provided.
