Abstract
An assembly for promoting interstitial fluid flow can include an implant having first and second electrodes, a control unit, and one or more magnets. The implant can be disposed at a selected site of a subject, and the control unit can be electrically coupled to the first and second electrodes and can provide power to the first and second electrodes to generate an electric field at the selected site. The one or more magnets can be disposed adjacent to the selected site and can generate magnetic field in a direction orthogonal to the electric field in order to drive electrically conductive interstitial fluid flow at the selected site.
