  • Method of making a body member for use in a genital stimulator
    Patent number: 4663102
    Abstract: A stimulator for penile erection comprises a body member which may be inserted into the rectum of a user, the body member being so shaped as to closely conform to the topological configuration of the rectum from the anal area to a site adjacent to the prostate gland. Within the body member is electrical circuitry for generating a neutrally stimulating electrical signal. Electrodes, placed at particular locations on the surface of the body member, apply the signal to the user. At least one of the electrodes closely contacts the prostate gland when the body member is operatively disposed, at a region or spot on the prostate gland previously determined to be sensitive to electrical stimulation.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: March 25, 1985
    Date of Patent: May 5, 1987
    Assignee: Biosonics, Inc.
    Inventors: Henry S. Brenman, Philip Katz, Harold L. Schwartz
  • Apparatus and method for inhibiting nasal secretions
    Patent number: 4590942
    Abstract: Apparatus for inhibiting nasal secretions by selective neural stimulation applies an electrical signal to a selected neurally sensitive area of the oral cavity. A method for inhibiting nasal secretions includes the steps of applying an electrical signal to a neurally sensitive area in the oral cavity, such as on opposite sides of the frenulum and beneath the philtrum.
