Zusammenfassung: | Disclosed herein are systems, devices, and methods for stimulating nerves, including electrically stimulating peripheral nerve(s) to treat various diseases and disorders, as well as systems and methods for applying stimulation waveforms for improving the therapeutic benefit, outcomes, and/or experience relating to the same. Some systems and methods generate a biphasic stimulation waveform that includes a plurality of pulses with alternating leading phases. Some systems and methods vary one or more parameters of the stimulation waveform to correlate with a characteristic of the user. Example characteristic of the user include a phase of a tremor exhibited by the user and a respiratory cycle of the user. For some systems and methods, the stimulation waveform includes a plurality of burst with each burst ramping up in amplitude. For some systems and methods, the stimulation waveform is delivered during a time period that includes an on-cycle portion and an off-cycle portion with the stimulation waveform only being delivered during the on-cycle portion of the time period. |
