<P>PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To perform nerve stimulation while suppressing the occurrence of symptom caused by sinus node dysfunction or atrioventricular node dysfunction. <P>SOLUTION: A nerve stimulation apparatus 1 includes: a stimulation signal generator 3 configured to output a stimulation signal to a nerve; a cardiac-event acquisition unit 5 configured to acquire cardiac events; and a control unit 6 configured to control the stimulation signal generator 3 such that sinus node dysfunction or atrioventricular node dysfunction is determined to be occurring and energy of the stimulation signal is reduced when a time interval value between the adjacent cardiac events acquired by the cardiac-event acquisition unit 5 exceeds a predetermined threshold. <P>COPYRIGHT: (C)2013,JPO&INPIT |
