摘要 |
Effective systems and methods for improving neural communication impairment of a vertebrate being and affecting motor activity of a peripheral body part including a first signal providing component configured to provide pulsed peripheral stimulation signals at the peripheral body part, a second signal providing component configured to provide a pulsed motor cortex stimulation signal to a motor cortex area, a substantially DC signal providing component configured to provide direct current spinal stimulation signal at a neural spinal junction and a controller component configured to control timing of the pulsed peripheral stimulation signals and the pulsed motor cortex stimulation signal. |

1. A system for improving neural communication impairment of a vertebrate being, the system comprising:
a first signal providing component configured to provide pulsed peripheral stimulation signals at a peripheral body part through a first signal transmission component for generating a first stimulation signal along a neural pathway; a second signal providing component configured to provide a pulsed motor cortex stimulation signal to a motor cortex area through a second signal transmission component for generating a second stimulation signal along the neural pathway; a DC signal providing component configured to provide a constant-level direct current spinal stimulation signal to a neural spinal, unction on the neural pathway; and a controller component configured to control timing of the pulsed peripheral stimulation signals, the pulsed motor cortex stimulation signal, and the constant-level direct current spinal stimulation signal, for triple stimulation of the neural pathway by the pulsed peripheral stimulation signals, the pulsed motor cortex stimulation signal and the constant-level direct current spinal stimulation signal; where components of a neural pathway are reestablished by induced neural signals, which are generated by the pulsed peripheral stimulation signals, the puled motor cortex stimulation signal, and the constant-level direct current spinal stimulation signal. |
