  • Publication number: 20240050761
    Abstract: Apparatuses and methods for delivery of pulsed electromagnetic field (PEMF) energy therapy to modulate inflammation using high-frequency current pulsed through one or more coils. For example, described herein are pulse burst waveforms, coil applicators for the head and body, and implantable biocompatible coil arrays. The methods and apparatuses described herein include parameters for PEMF energy that specifically and robustly reduce an inflammatory response. Also described herein are methods and apparatuses increasing an inflammatory response using PEMF parameters that specifically and robustly increase in inflammatory response.
