DOSING DEVICE FOR CONTROLLED INJECTION OF LIQUID FROM A RESERVOIR INTO AN ORGANISM

A dosing device of the type which can be implanted in a patient to control injection of liquids from a reservoir into the patient has an electrically controllable piston pump and a circuit responsible for controlling and monitoring the operation of the pump. The circuit includes a unit for acquiring a chronological curve representative of the piston motion, and electrical signals proportional thereto are obtained. These signals are supplied to control elements which compare these signals to prescribed rated values, and generate control and alarm signals given deviations of the incoming signals from the rated values.
