Embodiment Construction

[0021] The present invention will be further described below in conjunction with specific examples.

[0022] The wearable multi-mode wireless nerve stimulation system provided in this embodiment is specifically a wireless gateway controlling multiple electrical stimulator nodes, each electrical stimulator node can be configured and controlled through wireless communication, and its output current parameters include The waveform, amplitude, opening, closing, and action time of the current can be adjusted arbitrarily.

[0023] The electrical stimulator node is composed of a CPU, a wireless transceiver, an electric pulse generator, a battery, and skin electrodes. The entire electrical stimulator node device is adsorbed on the surface of the human body through the skin electrode patch, without additional control circuits and electrodes. Control leads. The wireless nerve stimulation system uses intermediate frequency current with better penetrability to the human body, and applies...

Abstract

The invention discloses a wearable multimode wireless nerve stimulation system. An electric current is applied to a human body in a wearable manner to stimulate deep nerves of the human body. The system comprises a wireless gateway and a plurality of wearable electrical stimulator nodes, each electrical stimulator node and corresponding skin electrodes are designed integrally, and each node is configured and controlled through the wireless gateway. The electrical stimulator nodes have a single-node operating mode and a two-node operating mode; in the single-node operating mode, single nodes output pre-modulated medium-frequency electric pulses; in the two-node operating mode, two nodes output continuous medium-frequency electric pulses with output frequencies in difference of a certain numerical value. The two-node operating mode includes fixing and scanning operating modes. Positions and change conditions of target stimulation areas can be adjusted arbitrarily. By adoption of the system, using a portable wearable device for stimulating human deep nerves can be realized.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a wearable device for stimulating deep nerves of a human body, in particular to a wearable multi-mode wireless nerve stimulation system. Background technique [0002] The traditional electrical stimulation device has a simple mode and can only provide low-frequency current or direct current. The impedance of human tissue to low-frequency current is relatively large, and the penetration of low-frequency current is poor, so it cannot penetrate into human tissue. As the carrier frequency of the stimulation current increases, the impedance of the human body decreases, and the penetrability of the medium-frequency current to human tissue is much greater than that of the low-frequency current. The pre-modulated intermediate frequency current and beat intermediate frequency current can simultaneously take into account the penetrability of the intermediate frequency current to human tissue and the low frequency response characteristics...
