PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a nerve stimulation device capable of reducing occurrences of tachycardia even when pacing is induced, for example, by stimulating myocardial cells.SOLUTION: A nerve stimulation device 1A stimulates a nerve from inside a blood vessel, and includes a stimulation electrode 34 for applying electric stimulation through an inner wall of the blood vessel, and a control part for controlling a current or a voltage to be supplied to the stimulation electrode 34. The control part has, patterns for controlling the current or voltage, a first stimulation pattern of successively applying first stimulation waveforms repeated with a frequency greater than or equal to a frequency corresponding to an allowable maximum heart rate, and a second stimulation pattern of intermittently applying second stimulation waveforms repeated with a frequency less than or equal to the frequency corresponding to the allowable maximum heart rate. |
