Abstract

In a medical therapy apparatus, such as a pacemaker, a physiological function which is to be artificially controlled by therapy administration has a natural variability associated therewith. The medical therapy apparatus generates a basic therapy which would otherwise be supplied to the subject in the absence of such natural variability. The medical therapy apparatus further includes a non-linear oscillator which emits a chaotic output, the chaotic output of the non-linear oscillator being matched to the variability of the physiological function in order to produce a variability adjustment. The basic therapy is combined with the variability adjustment and a variability-adjusted therapy is then administered to the subject.
