SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR NERVE STIMULATION - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240024667 titled 'SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR NERVE STIMULATION

Simplified Explanation

The patent application describes a neuromodulation device that consists of a movable arm connected to a main body. The arm can transition between an open and closed configuration, with a bias towards the closed configuration. The device includes a nerve stimulation chamber defined by the movable arm, which is designed to retain a nerve. There is also an open channel through which the nerve travels, defined by the movable arm. The size and shape of the chamber and channel can be adjusted by the movement of the arm when it comes into contact with the nerve. The chamber includes an electrode.

  • The device includes a movable arm that can transition between open and closed configurations.
  • The arm is biased towards the closed configuration.
  • A nerve stimulation chamber is defined by the movable arm, which retains a nerve.
  • The device has an open channel through which the nerve travels.
  • The size and shape of the chamber and channel can be adjusted by the movement of the arm in response to contact with the nerve.
  • The chamber includes an electrode.

Potential Applications:

  • Neuromodulation therapy for various medical conditions.
  • Treatment of chronic pain.
  • Management of neurological disorders.
  • Rehabilitation and recovery after nerve injuries.

Problems Solved:

  • Provides a means for targeted nerve stimulation.
  • Allows for adjustable sizing and shaping of the nerve stimulation chamber and channel.
  • Facilitates precise positioning and retention of the nerve within the chamber.
  • Enables controlled and customizable neuromodulation therapy.

Benefits:

  • Improved efficacy and precision in nerve stimulation.
  • Enhanced patient comfort and safety.
  • Adjustable and customizable treatment options.
  • Potential for improved outcomes in pain management and neurological disorders.


Original Abstract Submitted

a neuromodulation device includes a movable arm coupled with a main body. the movable arm is configured to transition between an open configuration and a closed configuration. the movable arm is biased towards the closed configuration. a nerve stimulation chamber is defined at least in part by the movable arm. the nerve stimulation chamber is configured to retain a nerve therein. the device has an open channel through which the nerve travels. the channel is defined at least in part by the movable arm. the size and shape of the chamber and the channel are adjustable by the movement of the arm in response to contact with the nerve. the channel may be continuously axial along a longitudinal axis of the channel when the movable arm is in the closed configuration. the chamber has an electrode.
