Abstract:
A miniature wireless transcutaneous electrical neuro or muscular stimulation unit. The unit has a housing attached to a plurality of electrodes. An electronics module containing an electrical circuit is contained within the housing and provides a sequence of monophasic or biphasic pulses to a patients pain site via the electrodes. The electrodes can be disposable and come in a variety of shapes and sizes. The patient may select and control the intensity and the frequency of the pulses by choosing one of several TENS and microcurrent waveforms, as well as the orientation and quantity of the electrodes. The means for supplying power to the electronics module can be integrated with the electrodes in one detachable and disposable assembly. A worn-remote controller can send transmission signals to a receiver within the electronic module thereby allowing the patient to program specific units placed on the patients body to perform operations in a specified series of waveforms. The electrodes may be embedded in a splint, bandage, brace or cast, where wires or flex-circuit material connect the electrodes to the unit.
