MULTI-MODAL STIMULATION FOR TREATING TREMOR

摘要

A peripheral nerve stimulator to stimulate a peripheral nerve to treat essential tremor and other movement disorders, as well as overactive bladder, cardiac dysfunction and neurotransmitter dysfunction is provided. The peripheral nerve stimulator can be a noninvasive surface stimulator to provide multi-modal optimized therapy. Stimulation can be vibrational, electromechanical, thermal, radiant, electrical, magnetic, electromagnetic, light, mechanical, chemical, thermal, ultrasonic, radiofrequency (RF), acoustic, infrared, ultraviolet, x-ray, and/or microwave. Stimulation can be delivered using an open loop system and/or a closed loop system with feedback. Stimulation can be to one site or multiple sites.
