Title:
DEVICE AND METHOD FOR DELIVERY OF TRANSCUTANEOUS CURRENT
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO/2023/130130
Kind Code:
A3
Abstract:
An implantable device may receive an alternating transcutaneous current, may rectify the alternating transcutaneous current to generate a positive current, may rectify the alternating transcutaneous current to generate a negative current, may stimulate tissue at a first location utilizing the positive current, and may stimulate tissue at a second location utilizing the negative current. The present invention displays a low frequency waveform applied by an external generator to transcutaneously deliver current through an implanted device. The waveform includes burst phases and discharge phases. The external generator applies a low frequency pulse of current during each burst phase. For example, the external generator may deliver a single pulse of current for the duration of each burst phase. A pulse may be a simple rectangular pulse. A pulse may alternatively have another shape or any other arbitrary waveform. In some aspects, the shape can change from pulse to pulse.
