The present invention is method and a device to detect and treat Bruxism through a combination of muscle and brain sensors detecting sensors and providing a set of biofeedbacks to stop grinding while preventing habituation to biofeedbacks. The frequency and phase of the rhythmic grinding pattern of a Bruxer is identified and a biofeedback with the same frequency but different phase is applied on the user to stop grinding without waking the user from a sleep.

The present invention discloses a method for monitoring an exercise. Acquire a relationship between a degree of active participation of an organism of a human body and an exercise intensity. Build up an energy metabolism system and build up a mathematical model describing that an energy expenditure depends on the exercise intensity and the degree of active participation of the organism of the human body for the energy metabolism system. Determine the degree of active participation of the organism based on the exercise intensity measured in the exercise by the relationship. Use the exercise intensity and the degree of active participation of the organism to estimate the energy expenditure by the mathematical model of the energy metabolism system. Monitor the exercise based on the energy expenditure.

Systems and methods for treating a patient having symptoms of restless legs syndrome (RLS) or Periodic Limb Movement Disorder (PLMD) using high-frequency stimulation by applying a high-frequency pulsed electrostimulation therapy signal to a peroneal nerve or a branch thereof, where the therapy signal is above a motor threshold of a muscle innervated by the peroneal nerve or branch thereof. Surface EMG (sEMG) response to neurostimulation can be used to evaluate patient responsivity to neurostimulation, or to evaluate neurostimulation efficacy, such as to compare various neurostimulation parameter settings and to select between such settings to meet or balance between one or more goals. The sEMG response can be obtained with the muscle at rest, or during muscle activation.

An information processing apparatus includes: a preparation device preparing information on a body posture; an acting force meter measuring a first acting force the body applies on a first object; a myoelectric potential meter; and a processor acquiring the information on the posture, acquiring information on the first acting force measured by the acting force meter, acquiring information on the myoelectric potential, setting an initial value for a second acting force the body applies to a second object other than the first object, estimating a muscle activity state corresponding to the posture, the first acting force, and the second acting force, repeating updating the second acting force such that a difference between (i) a muscle activity state determined based on the myoelectric potential and (ii) the estimated activity state decreases, and presenting the second acting force when the difference is less than a predetermined threshold value.

Disclosed are methods and systems for treating epilepsy by stimulating a main trunk of a vagus nerve, or a left vagus nerve, when the patient has had no seizure or a seizure that is not characterized by cardiac changes such as an increase in heart rate, and stimulating a cardiac branch of a vagus nerve, or a right vagus nerve, when the patient has had a seizure characterized by cardiac changes such as a heart rate increase.
