A skull-mounted drug and pressure sensor (SOS), a smart pump (ISP) electrically coupled to the SOS and a drug delivery and communications catheter communicating the SOS with the ISP are combined for a first embodiment. A skull-mounted (SOS), a metronomic biofeedback pump (MBP) electrically coupled to the SOS and a drug delivery and communications catheter having a sending and receiving optical fiber communicating the SOS with the MBP are combined for a second embodiment. A third embodiment combines a (SOS), an implantable power and communication unit (PCU) electrically coupled to the SOS, and a drug delivery and communications catheter for communicating the SOS with the PCU and for communicating the exterior source of the drug to the SOS. A fourth embodiment combines a ventricular catheter with a CSF accessible chamber and drug delivery port; and an implantable stand-alone skull-mounted drug and pressure sensor (SPS).

Skull-mounted drug and pressure sensor

A method of operating an infusion device that includes the steps of actuating a fluid transfer device, which is configured to deliver a predetermined volume during each actuation, in accordance with a delivery profile that includes a plurality of fluid transfer device actuations, determining, based on sensed pressure, whether an actual volume delivered during a fluid transfer device actuation is the predetermined volume, and adjusting the number of actuations in the delivery profile in response to the actual volume delivered differing from the predetermined volume.
