Abstract

Apparatus for transcutaneous electrical nerve stimulation in a user, the apparatus comprising: a stimulator for electrically stimulating at least one nerve; a stimulator housing; a monitor for monitoring transient motion of the stimulator housing; an analyzer for analyzing transient motion monitored by the monitor for determining whether transient motion of the stimulator housing has occurred; and a controller for automatically transitioning at least one of the stimulator, the monitor, and the analyzer between a standby mode and a power save mode; wherein the power save mode supports a subset of the functionality of the stimulator and the monitor which is available in the standby mode so as to conserve battery power in the power save mode.
