DEFINITION

Classification: 604/131

Treating material forced into or out of body by self-acting fluid pressure, motor-driven, or mechanical energy storing means (e.g., pressure infusion or aspiration, etc.):

(under subclass 93) Subject matter wherein body treating material is thrust into or expelled from the body by (a) fluid pressure which does not require the application of force by a person during the injection, (b) an apparatus powered by a device which converts any form of energy into

mechanical energy, or (c) a mechanical device capable of storing energy.
