CA 2513720

A therapeutic device (1) and therapeutic method for delivering electrical energy to a polymer (20) containing a medicament that allow release of the medicament to a body tissue or organ. The device and method utilizes ultrasonic vibrations to cause the device, implanted in the body tissue or organ to be treated, to discharge an electrical current to the polymer containing the medicament. The medicament is controllably released to the target area by changing the charge of the polymer with the electrical current.

L'invention concerne un dispositif thérapeutique et un procédé thérapeutique permettant de fournir de l'énergie électrique dans un polymère renfermant un médicament et permettant de libérer celui-ci dans un tissu ou organe corporel. Le dispositif et le procédé mettent en oeuvre des vibrations ultrasoniques de manière à contraindre le dispositif, implanté dans le tissu ou l'organe corporel à traiter, à décharger un courant électrique dans le polymère renfermant le médicament. Celui-ci est libéré de manière commandée dans la zone cible grâce à la variation de la charge du polymère au moyen du courant électrique.
