Problems solved by technology

However, the existing electrical stimulation schemes for obesity require minimally invasive surgery to place the stimulator in the gastrointestinal tract or spinal cord. The operation risk is high, the device is damaged and difficult to replace, and the price is expensive. Drug treatment is slow to take effect and has side effects. Direct current stimulation and repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation have many adverse reactions and are not easily accepted by patients

Abstract

The invention discloses a vagus nerve stimulation device for reducing weight, comprising a controller, a stimulation signal generator and two electrode fixing devices. Each electrode fixing device isprovided with a positive electrode and a negative electrode, and each electrode fixing device is connected with the stimulation signal generator. The electrode fixing device is provided with an earplug and a hook, wherein the earplug corresponds to a concha cavity of a contact person, the hook corresponds to a concha boat of the contact person, and the positive electrode and the negative electrodeare distributed on the earplug and the hook. The vagus nerve stimulating device for reducing weight can treat obesity and other diseases through the auricular branch of the vagus nerve, and does notrequire a patient to take drugs, does not require an implantation operation, does not require a transcranial stimulation, has low cost, and does not bring adverse reactions and side effects to the patient.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the field of medical care devices, in particular to a vagus nerve stimulation device for weight loss. Background technique [0002] The vagus nerve is the tenth pair of cranial nerves. It is the longest and most widely distributed pair of cranial nerves. It contains four fiber components: somatosensory fibers, visceral sensory fibers, body motor fibers, and visceral motor fibers. It innervates the respiratory system and digestive system. Most of the organs and the sensation, movement and glandular secretion of the heart. Studies have found that obesity symptoms are closely related to the vagus nerve. For these symptoms, the traditional treatment method is drug treatment, but long-term use of drugs will bring unavoidable side effects. Due to the rich distribution of nerves in the auricle, the auricular branch of the vagus nerve is the only peripheral pathway that can reach the cerebral cortex, and it is also inseparable from th...
