Abstract
Official abstract text for this publication.
In a method and apparatus for supplying wireless energy to a medical device implanted in a patient, wireless energy is transmitted from an external energy source located outside a patient and is received by an internal energy receiver located inside the patient, for directly or indirectly supplying received energy to the medical device. An energy balance is determined between the energy received by the internal energy receiver and the energy used for the medical device, and the transmission of wireless energy is then controlled based on the determined energy balance. The energy balance thus provides an accurate indication of the correct amount of energy needed, which is sufficient to operate the medical device properly, but without causing undue temperature rise.
First claim
Opening claim text (preview).
What is claimed is: 1. An apparatus for controlling transmission of wireless energy supplied to an electrically operable medical device when implanted in a patient, comprising an external energy source, and an internal energy receiver, the apparatus being adapted to transmit said wireless energy from the external energy source located outside the patient which is received by the internal energy receiver located inside the patient, the internal energy receiver being connected to the…
