First Claim
Patent Images
1. A method for controlling respiration in a subject, comprising the steps of:
- generating a first simulated action potential signal that is recognizable by the subject'"'"'s respiratory system as a modulation signal; and
transmitting at least the first simulated action potential signal to the subject'"'"'s body, whereby control of the subject'"'"'s respiratory system is effectuated.

19. A method for controlling respiration, comprising the steps of:
-
monitoring the respiration status of a subject and providing at least one respiratory system status signal indicative of the status of the subject'"'"'s respiratory system;
generating a first simulated action potential signal that is recognizable by the subject'"'"'s respiratory system as a modulation signal; and
transmitting said first square wave signal to said subject in response to said respiratory system status signal. - View Dependent Claims (20, 21, 22, 23, 24, 25, 26, 27, 28, 29, 30, 31, 32, 33, 34, 35, 36)
