Publication number: 20210008368Abstract: Neuromodulation devices and methods of their use are described in which a therapeutic device is configured to generate a treatment for treating pain such as the reduction of the symptoms of chronic and acute pain as well as for treating other conditions. The neuromodulation device generates an output electrical signal in the form of pulses with a fast rise-time spike waveform followed by a longer-duration, lower amplitude primary phase waveform. The output signal includes a broad range of frequency components, with time constants tuned so as to interact with specific cell membrane or cellular components. The output signal may be conducted to the patient via electrodes. The pulses are triggered at variable intervals which prevent habituation.Type: ApplicationFiled: September 21, 2020Publication date: January 14, 2021Applicant: Thimble Bioelectronics, Inc. d/b/a EnsoInventors: Alexander B. IZVORSKI, Shaun RAHIMI, Kevin MCCULLOUGH
