Abstract
A microenvironment of a biological body is controlled, and more particularly, is measured, changed, and monitored with respect to temperature, pH level, moisture and other tissue parameters of a region of the body while, optionally, administering a therapeutic agent to that region.
Claims20
A system for delivering energy to body tissue of a user, the system comprising:
- a cap configured to be positioned on and to cover a scalp of the user;
- multiple electromagnetic energy delivering devices positioned at multiple locations throughout the cap and configured to deliver the energy into the scalp of the user at multiple locations thereof;
- at least one sensor positioned within the cap separate from the multiple electromagnetic energy delivering devices;
- and
- a controller including a microprocessor communicatively coupled to the cap,
- wherein the at least one sensor is configured to send a signal to the controller, and the controller is configured to control the multiple electromagnetic energy delivering devices based on the signal from the at least one sensor, and
- wherein the cap is configured to stabilize the multiple electromagnetic energy delivering devices for a period of time while the multiple electromagnetic energy delivering devices increase a rate of blood flow in the body tissue of the user.

A system for delivering energy to a user, the system comprising:
- a surface mounted device having a three dimensional mounting system configured to be positioned on and conform to a head and circumferentially around at least a portion of a neck while not covering the face of the user;
- multiple active energy delivering devices positioned at multiple locations on the surface mounted device and configured to deliver energy into a brain and carotid arteries of the user;
- at least one sensor positioned within the surface mounted device separate from the multiple active energy delivering devices;
- and
- a controller including a microprocessor communicatively coupled to the surface mounted device,
- wherein the at least one sensor is configured to send a signal to the controller, and the controller is configured to control the multiple active energy delivering devices based on the signal from the at least one sensor, and
- wherein the three dimensional mounting system is configured to stabilize the multiple active energy delivering devices for a period of time while the multiple active energy delivering devices deliver energy to the brain and carotid arteries of the user.
4 more elements
A system for delivering energy to body tissue of a user, the system comprising:
- a surface mounted device having a three dimensional external mounting system positionable about a head of a user;
- multiple active energy delivering devices positioned in a front and rear of the surface mounted device configured to deliver electrical energy to specific locations at the front and rear of the head of the user;
- at least one sensor positioned within the surface mounted device separate from the multiple active energy delivering devices and configured to sense at least one body parameter of the user;
- and
- a control unit including a microprocessor communicatively coupled to the surface mounted device and configured to control the multiple active electrical energy delivering devices,
- wherein the multiple active electrical energy delivering devices are configured to provide electrical stimulation to the specific portions about the head of the user in contact with the multiple active electrical energy delivering devices.
