Method And Apparatus For A Long-Term, Fully Implantable MRI Compatible Drug Pump
Patent Number: US 12,076,527 B2
Date Filed: September 3, 2024
Country Filed In: USA
Product Application: SINNAIS Implantable Pump
Description:
The illustrated embodiments of the invention include an MRI compatible apparatus having: a refillable drug reservoir; a hermetically sealed, implantable chamber; a pump disposed in and hermetically sealed within the hermetically sealed, implantable chamber and fluidically communicated to the drug reservoir; and control electronics disposed in and hermetically sealed within the hermetically sealed, implantable chamber and electrically communicated to the pump. The refillable drug reservoir, hermetically sealed, implantable chamber, pump and control electronics are MRI compatible.
Field of Use: The SINNAIS Implantable Pump is the culmination of over a decade and a half of research and development for an implantable drug delivery pump incorporating Josh Shachar's biosensor technology to provide a step forward in providing patients with a more effective treatment protocol for pharma-based regimens where current systemic drug delivery is not as effective. The SINNAIS system provides metronomically controlled drug delivery at micro-dose levels with SMART biosensor feedback that provides a physician real-time data on a variety of treatment and patient vital metrics to allow for rapid response and modification of treatment from a remote location.
