Patent application number | Description | Published |
20090118789 | Electrode System for Transcutaneous Nerve and/or Muscle Stimulation - An electrode system for transcutaneous nerve and/or muscle stimulation that includes a pair of stimulating electrodes and a stimulation current generator for generating a nerve and/or muscle stimulation current between the stimulating electrodes. The system also includes a current-injecting electrode arranged in proximity to one of the stimulating electrodes, and an injection-current generator located in the area of the current-injecting electrode. The current-injecting electrode and the corresponding injection-current generator reduce, or even eliminate, undesirable sensations resulting from an excitation of subcutaneous receptors by the stimulation current. | 05-07-2009 |
20090240313 | Electrode for a Neuromuscular Stimulator - An electrode for neuromuscular stimulator comprising a conductive layer, for example of metal, on a resistive layer, the lower face of the resistive layer being intended to contact the skin of a user, characterized in that the specific impedance Z | 09-24-2009 |
20100042180 | ELECTRICAL STIMULATION DEVICE AND METHOD FOR THERAPEUTIC TREATMENT AND PAIN MANAGEMENT - A disposable electrical stimulation device and method for providing therapeutic treatment and pain management in a convenient, compact configuration. Electrode size and shape and relative configuration can be varied according to an intended application and use, or a universal configuration can be provided for use on almost any area of the body. The common structure of communicatively coupled dual electrodes including control circuitry and a power source accommodates a range of different sizes, configurations, stimulation treatment intensities, and other physical and electrical characteristics that can be pre-customized and packaged for specific, limited time use. The device can therefore be used in methods of providing therapy, managing pain, and achieving other treatment goals by electrical stimulation. | 02-18-2010 |
20100191316 | ELECTRODE SET AND STIMULATING DEVICE - The electrode set for a stimulation device, such as a TENS or EMS stimulation device comprises at least a plurality of neighboring electrically active zones close to each other said active zones forming a succession of poles of alternating polarity or being grouped to form groups of poles of alternating polarity, wherein at least one of said active zone or group of zones has a lateral size (D | 07-29-2010 |
20110178447 | STIMULATION BRACE - A device for the treatment of the body of a wearer comprising an orthopedic brace combined with at least one electrically active zone to stimulate the body of the wearer of the brace. | 07-21-2011 |
20110208097 | DEVICE FOR DIALYSIS AND STIMULATION OF A PATIENT AND METHOD - A device and method for carrying out a dialysis of a patient and a stimulation of said patient at the same time either during dialysis sessions, or between dialysis sessions or both. | 08-25-2011 |
20120116478 | AUTOMATED ADAPTIVE MUSCLE STIMULATION METHOD AND APPARATUS - An automated adaptive muscle stimulation system and method are disclosed. The stimulation system includes at least one electrode assembly adapted to deliver a muscle stimulation signal to the tissue of a user, a sensor system adapted to detect a muscle response, and an electrical stimulation device operably coupled to the at least on electrode assembly and the sensor system, the electrical stimulation device including a control system operable to automatically diagnose at least one characteristic of a muscle from the detected muscle response and adjust at least one parameter of the muscle stimulation signal in response thereto to deliver an adjusted muscle stimulation signal. A dual mode muscle stimulation system adapted to accept first and second data sets and provide first and second levels of treatment data is also disclosed. | 05-10-2012 |
20130324896 | DEVICE FOR DIALYSIS AND STIMULATION OF A PATIENT AND METHOD - A device and method for carrying out dialysis and stimulation of a patient at the same time, in which an inflatable/deflatable cuff applies the stimulation. | 12-05-2013 |
