Abstract

The invention discloses a portable transcranial direct-current stimulation system used for smoking cessation. The system comprises a constant current generator and a positioning cap, wherein the intensity of the current output by the constant current generator rises to the target current value from 0 mA within the certain period of time, and the target current is kept being output by a certain period of time. The positioning cap comprises two electrodes which are connected with the constant current generator and used for achieving transcranial direct-current stimulation. Rubber positioning shafts are arranged at the front end and the rear end of the positioning cap respectively. The front end protrudes to correspond to a nose root, and the rear end protrudes to correspond to occipital protuberance. Connection rings are arranged on the left side and the right side of the positioning cap respectively and used for being connected and fixed to a head through hook-and-loop fasteners. The system can be conveniently used by smokers in daily life, smokers who want to give up smoking can be effectively helped to resist the eager, and the probability that the smokers smoke again is lowered.

Description

Technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of clinical application of biomedical engineering, in particular to a portable transcranial direct current stimulation system for smoking cessation. Background technique [0002] Smoking addiction can lead to an increase in the prevalence of many related diseases. The current smoking cessation methods are mainly externally administered substances, the most common ones are nicotine patches, e-cigarettes, various pharmaceutical preparations, etc.; recently some people have adopted specific foods or beverages to assist smoking cessation; these methods require the intake of foreign substances, so they are Many ex-smokers reject it. [0003] There are also some methods that use cognitive therapy to help quit smoking, but the effectiveness of these methods depends on the cognitive level of the quitters and the experience of the therapist, and it is not easy to use and promote. [0004] Transcranial Direct Current Stimula...
