This invention provides a system and apparatus for treating neurally responsive conditions by use of a novel combined waveform in combination with, and preferably modulated onto, a gigaTENS waveform administered to a patient. This modulated combined waveform can also be administered synchronously or asynchronously with a conventional mono- or bipolar spiked waveform, useful for TENS applications and/or for stimulatory input to the patient.

Combination non-intrusive analgesic neuroaugmentive system and method

The present invention pertains to a portable non-invasive electronic apparatus which can be used to relieve pain or alter the symptoms of certain neurological dysfunctions. A specifically contoured constant current and current limited waveform is generated and applied to selectively positioned electrodes. A program controlled processor tracks usage of the unit to prevent abuse and monitor progress. An overall treatment regimen centered on the stimulator may be effected simply and safely. The invention also provides an apparatus and method for the iontophoretic topical administration of a pharmaceutical agent. The apparatus is operated in a monopolar mode with a particular complex waveform which synergistically enhances the amount of various neurobiochemical species in the cerebral spinal fluid and the blood plasma.

Non-intrusive analgesic neuroaugmentive apparatus and management system

Headache modulator apparatus and methodology employs a transcutaneous electronic wave to reduce and control migraine and vascular headaches. A pair of electrodes is placed transcranially, i.e., a first contact electrode is placed at one side of the cranium and a second electrode is placed at the opposite side of the cranium of the head. An electronic current wave comprising relatively high frequency pulses with a low frequency amplitude modulation is then applied between the positive and negative electrodes.

Cerebral palsy treatment apparatus and methodology employs a transcutaneous electronic wave to suppress pain and increase motor function. A first positive contact electrode is placed at the right side of the cranium, and a second negative contact electrode is placed at the left side of the cranium of the head. An electronic current wave comprising relatively high frequency pulses with a low frequency amplitude modulation is then applied between the first to the second electrodes.

Dental electronic analgesia apparatus and methodology employs a transutaneous electronic wave to suppress perceived pain during trauma associated with dental procedures. During a pre-treatment phase, a first electrode is placed over the right temporal area of the patient's head and a second electrode on the left temporal area of a patient's head. In addition, during the operative phase, an additional electrode is placed on the buccal side of the gum adjacent the work area, and optional additional electrodes are disposed on the web of the ipsalateral hand and/or on the web of the contralateral hand. An electronic current wave comprising relatively high frequency pulses with a low frequency amplitude modulation is then applied between the first to the second electrodes. The apparatus of the instant invention has been found to block pain in most subjects with a low level current without any chemical intervention, or with a reduced dosage of local anesthesia.

Methodology for electronic dental analgesia

Laser therapeutic apparatus irradiates an area of cutaneous and/or subcutaneous physical injury, with a pulsed laser wave, producing healing and pain reduction. A pulsed laser beam of desired frequency is produced by reducing the output of an oscillator via a frequency multiplier which is varied in accordance with the off-nominal frequency deviation desired, if any. The rate multiplier output wave is divided down to a selected frequency and, after amplification, generates pulsed lasing energy. In accordance with varying aspects of the instant invention, a plurality of output lasing units, and optical diffusing lenses, are provided for controlled irradiation of an entire injured area. Circuitry is also provided for detecting pulsed infrared light.

Migraine modulator apparatus and methodology employs a transcutaneous electronic wave to reduce and control migraine headaches. A first positive contact electrode is placed at the pain site and a second positive contact is placed at the web of the contra-lateral hand; a first negative contact is placed at the contra-lateral trapezius origin, and a second negative contact electrode is placed at the web of the ipsilateral hand. An electronic current wave comprising relatively high frequency pulses with a low frequency amplitude modulation is then applied between the positive and negative electrodes.

Glaucoma treatment apparatus and methodology employs a transcutaneous electronic wave to suppress pain and reduce intra-ocular pressure. A first positive contact electrode is placed at the temple of the head, and a second negative contact electrode is placed at the web of the ipsilateral hand. An electronic current wave comprising relatively high frequency pulses with a low frequency amplitude modulation is then applied between the first to the second electrodes.

Electronic glaucoma treatment apparatus and methodology

Improved circuitry for detecting pulsed infrared light which is particularly suitable for use with laser therapeutic devices. Laser therapeutic devices generally utilize pulsed laser energy of infrared wavelengths. Because such light is invisible the operator of the therapeutic device cannot determine if it is actually working. The invention provides pulsed infrared light detection circuitry which is very compact so that it may be made part of the therapeutic device. The circuitry includes an infrared sensitive transducer coupled to the input of an inverting operational amplifier, a peak detector coupled to the output of the inverting amplifier, and a non-inverting amplifier coupled to the output of the peak detector for driving a display to indicate the detection of pulsed infrared energy.

Temporomandibular joint-myofascial pain dysfunction syndrome (TMJ-MPDS) treatment apparatus and methodology employs a transcutaneous electronic wave to suppress pain associated with TMJ-MPDS. A first positive contact electrode is placed at the pain site and a second positive contact electrode is placed at the contra-lateral temporomandibular joint; and a negative contact electrode is placed at the web of the ipsilateral hand. An electronic current wave comprising relatively high frequency pulses with a low frequency amplitude modulation is then applied between the first to the second electrodes.

Apparatus and methodology for treating the symptoms of multiple sclerosis employs a transcutaneous electronic wave to suppress perceived pain, increase strength, improve the perception of sensation, reduce spasticity associated with the disease, and create a general feeling of improved well being in the patient. A positive contact electrode is placed on the center of the frontalis muscle, and a negative electrode located at the occiput of the head. Additional negative contacts are placed at the base of the spine, on the medial malleolus of each affected leg and the web space of each affected hand. An electronic current wave comprising relatively high frequency pulses with a low frequency amplitude modulation is then applied between the first to the second electrodes.
