Abstract
Abstract THE PRESENT INVENTION IS DIRECTED PRINCIPALLY TO THE ELECTRODYNAMIC CONTROL OF BLOOD COAGULATION AND OF THROMBUS FORMATION IN NATURAL ORGANS AND ARTIFICIAL ORGAN IMPLANTS, FOR HUMANS AND ANIMALS. THE INVENTION PROVIDES FOR THE NET NEGATIVE ELECTRICAL CHARGING OF THE WALLS OF A NATURAL OR ARIFICIAL ORGAN OR ELEMENT OF THE CARDIOVASCULAR SYSTEM, AND OF THE BLOOD CELLS WITHIN SUCH ORGAN OR ELEMENT. THE MAINTENANCE OF SUCH A NET NEGATIVE CHARGE PROVIDES FOR A MUTUAL REPULSION OF THE BLOOD CELLS FROM THEMSELVES AND FROM THE NATURAL OR ARTIFICIAL VASCULAR SURFACE, SO THAT CLOTTING AND THOMBUS FORMATION IS AVOIDED WITHOUT UTILIZATION OF ANTICOAGULANT CHEMICAL AGENTS, AS BEEN NECESSARY HERETOFORE WITH IMPLANTED ARTIFICIAL ELEMENTS, FOR EXAMPLE. THE INVENTION ALSO IS USEFUL IN THE ELIMINATION OF EXISTING THROMBUS FORMATIONS, AND IS INDICATED TO HAVE A VARIETY OF ADVANTAGEOUS OBSERVED AND SUBJECTIVELY REPORTED THERAPEUTIC RESULTS, PRESUMABLY DERIVED FROM "CLEANSING" OF THE CARDIOVASCULAR SYSTEM. A FEATURE OF THE INVENTION IS THE MANNER AND MEANS FOR EFFECTING THE DESIRED NET NEGATIVE CHARGE. THE INVENTION IS INDICATED TO HAVE UTILITY IN THE TREATMENT OF HUMANS AND ANIMALS. IT ALSO HAS INDICATED USEFULNESS IN THE PRESERVATION OF BLOOD IN STORAGE.
