Embodiment Construction

[0067] according to figure 1 with 2 , the applicator 1 comprises a base body 2 which is made of an at least partially elastic material and which can be individually adapted to the shape of the head of the subject 3 shown.

[0068] The base body 2 is embodied as a ring-shaped or coronal shape that can rest on the head of the subject 3 , wherein a nosepiece 4 is provided, which has the possibility of adjustment for adaptation to anatomical conditions.

[0069] Furthermore, the base body 2 is connected to ear mounts 5 for the left and right ears 6 of the subject 3 .

[0070] In the region of the occipital region, the base body 2 is provided with a receptacle for electronic components.

[0071] On the one hand, this can be a storage unit 7 which has a stimulation program. In addition, a pulse generator for generating electrical stimulation signals and a control unit for providing a patient-specific stimulation signal sequence can preferably be arranged or installed in the occip...

Abstract

The present invention relates to an activation system for locally activating the nervous system in the human eyes and the brain by non-invasive pulse therapy to enhance the residual vision in the presence of a visual field defect. The activation system comprises an applicator used for directing an electrical current to the eyes and / or the brain and stimulating the blood flow and activating nerve cells, especially the visual system nerve cells and retinal ganglion cells; a pulse generator which is used for generating an electrical stimulation signal; and a data processing and control unit for providing a patient-specific sequence of stimulation signals. The applicator has at least two electrodes that can rest against the subject's head. A replaceable stimulation electrode is secured to theapplicator such that the stimulation electrode rests in the temple region of the patient's head at the left and right sides of the eye. The applicator has at least one arrangement for non-invasively determining the blood flow of the skin and brain and determining the oxygen saturation in order to improve the stimulation effect in the use of the activation system in this regard.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to an activation system for locally activating the human eye and brain for the training of visual abilities, in particular for activation by non-invasive pulse therapy, in particular alternating current pulse therapy (transcranial alternating current stimulation, tACS) Activation system of nerve cells in the human eye and brain to enhance residual vision in the presence of visual field defects, comprising an applicator for directing the flow of electrical current to the eye and / or brain and for stimulating blood flow and activating the nerves of the visual system cells, in particular retinal ganglion cells; a pulse generator for generating electrical stimulation signals; and a data processing and control unit for providing patient-specific stimulation signal sequences, wherein, according to the preamble of claim 1, the The applicator has at least two electrodes that can be attached to the subject's head.
