A61N2/004
Delivery device with coaxial cable, apparatus comprising said device and method
The device includes an outer conductor and an inner conductor arranged approximately coaxial with each other. The outer conductor surrounds the inner conductor. The outer conductor and the inner conductor are arranged and configured to generate an electromagnetic field with lines of force extending from a front surface of the inner conductor to a front surface of the outer conductor. The device further includes an energy delivery window arranged in front of the outer conductor and the inner conductor.
METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR TREATING PRE-ULCERATIVE LESIONS WITH PULSED ELECTROMAGNETIC FIELDS
A method and apparatus for treating pre-ulcerative lesions is disclosed. In some embodiments, pre-ulcerative lesions, which may include unerupted diabetic foot ulcers, unerupted pressure ulcers, and venous leg ulcers, may be detected and located prior to ulceration. A high-power pulsed electromagnetic field therapy may be provided to the location of the pre-ulcerative lesion.
Systems and methods for spasticity treatment using spinal nerve magnetic stimulation
Described are methods, devices, and systems for a novel, easy to use treatment for spasticity that does not involve medication. Methods and devices herein use low-frequency repetitive magnetic fields to enhance communication in the spinal nerve, thereby allowing improved relaxation, control, and coordination in a muscle.

In at least one embodiment, a device comprising, a power supply; an amplifier; an antenna and a waveform generator is provided and the one or more signals have an aperiodic continuous waveform function or an aperiodic pulse train that reduce inflammation, reduce pro-inflammatory cytokines molecules and/or increases anti-inflammatory signaling molecules in a mammal.
RHINITIS THERAPY APPARATUS AND METHOD FOR OPERATING THEREOF
The present disclosure provides a rhinitis therapy apparatus, which includes a body configured to be able to cover a nose region of a user, and a magnetic field generator provided on the body and irradiating a magnetic field toward the nose region, in which the magnetic field generator includes a first coil guide, a second coil guide disposed to face the first coil guide, and a magnetic core disposed between the first coil guide and the second coil guide and including a coil wound thereon, and a method for operating the same.
System and methods for treating cancer cells with alternating polarity magnetic fields
Systems and method for destroying or inhibiting cancer cells and other rapidly-dividing cells include applying AP magnetic fields having a defined frequency of 5 Hz-500 kHz and a field strength of 0.1-5000 μT to a target body area that includes the cancer or other rapidly-dividing cells, and modifying the cancer or tumor microenvironment to increase the presence of cancer-suppressive cells or decrease the presence of cancer-promoting cells. In various embodiments, the systems and methods may include adjusting the therapy based on the dosage of an immunotherapy drug administered to the patient before, during, or after the application of the AP magnetic fields.
Methods for neuro-cardiac guided magnetic stimulation therapy
A method of stimulation treatment for medical disorders using stimulation parameters that provide stimulation of a target site directly or create partial stimulation signals that combine into vector signals that stimulate a target site. Stimulation signals have characteristics such as frequency, timing, temporal content that is adjusted for the person being treated. Signals are designed with advantageous characteristics to influence target tissue in an intended manner and avoid producing unwanted side-effects. Stimulation signals are designed to match or avoid internal/endogenous activity (e.g., brain patterns and rhythms) of a patient. Methods for choosing, creating and partial signals are provided. Tissue modulation may be accomplished with electrical and/or magnetic stimulation, such as repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation.
STIMULATION APPARATUS
The present invention relates to a stimulation apparatus (10), comprising a magnetic stimulation unit (20), and a processing unit (30). The processing unit is configured to control the magnetic stimulation unit to provide intentional nerve and/or muscle stimuli to a peripheral body part of a patient.
