Abstract

The current invention concerns a device and a method for the abortive or preventive treatment of a headache via external trigeminal nerve stimulation, in particular transcutaneous non-invasive electrical trigeminal stimulation via consecutive pulses. The pulses comprise a pulse repetition frequency of between 0.5 kilohertz and 50 kilohertz; a pulse width of between 1 microseconds and 500 microseconds; and a pulse amplitude of between 0.1 milliampere and 200 milliampere.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of devices and methods for afflictive or prophylactic treatment of headache via transcutaneous electrical nerve stimulation (TENS), in particular via external trigeminal nerve stimulation (e-TNS). Background technique [0002] Headaches (especially migraines) can significantly impair quality of life. Acute treatment is primarily pharmacological, with the most commonly used drugs being analgesics, nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) and triptans. These drugs have some contraindications and are associated with moderate to severe side effects. Overdosing may lead to headache chronification, medication overuse headache and / or drug resistance. [0003] Neurostimulation has been shown to be a good alternative to pharmacological approaches and is suitable for both acute and prophylactic treatment. [0004] WO2016 / 155773A1 and US2018 / 0056065A1 disclose a device for transcutaneous electrical stim...
