SPINAL CORD MODULATION FOR INDUCING PARESTHETIC AND ANESTHETIC EFFECTS, AND ASSOCIATED SYSTEMS AND METHODS

Abstract A patient treatment system, comprising: a pulse generator that, in operation: generates bursts of low frequency pulses, wherein each burst of low frequency pulses includes at least two bi-phasic pulses having a frequency in a first frequency range of 2 Hz to 1.2 kHz, and generates high freq...

Zusammenfassung:Abstract A patient treatment system, comprising: a pulse generator that, in operation: generates bursts of low frequency pulses, wherein each burst of low frequency pulses includes at least two bi-phasic pulses having a frequency in a first frequency range of 2 Hz to 1.2 kHz, and generates high frequency pulses between sequential bursts of the low frequency pulses, wherein the high frequency pulses (i) have a frequency in a second frequency range of 1.5 kHz to 100 kHz, and (ii) do not generate paresthesia when delivered to a patient; and an implantable signal delivery device having a plurality of electrodes electrically coupleable to the pulse generator and designed to be implanted within a patient's epidural space, proximate to one or more target neural populations of the patient's spinal cord.
