Method and Apparatus to Increase Tactile Senstivity and Proprioception in Humans |
摘要 |
The article is a support to which an electrode pair, a positive and corresponding negative electrode, is attached. Leads are electrically attached to each of the positive and negative electrodes, wherein each lead has an insulated coating. A controller is electrically attached to the leads for delivering monophasic or biphasic electrical stimulation at a single frequency. A power supply is electrically connected to the controller, and may be attached to the support. The article may be a sock, a glove, a harness or an insole. |

1. An article for transcutaneously applying electrical stimulation to sensory receptors comprising:
a support to which an electrode pair comprising a cathode and an anode; single leads attached to each of the positive and negative electrodes, wherein the single leads have insulated coatings; and a controller attached to the single leads for delivering monophasic or biphasic electrical stimulation at a single frequency between 150 Hz to 350 Hz, and at a current between 0.1 mA to 5 mA; and a power supply connected to the controller. |
