  • SYSTEMS AND METHODS RELATED TO THE TREATMENT OF BACK PAIN
    Publication number: 20240115861
    Abstract: The present invention reduces pain and improves function long-term in persons with back pain using electrical stimulation in the back. This approach involves an electrical stimulation device including at least one electrode adapted for insertion within an animal body with back pain and at least one pulse generator operatively coupled with the at least one electrode, wherein the pulse generator delivers electrical stimulation activating at least a nerve innervating at least a paraspinal muscle in a back of the animal body for pain relief.
    Type: Application
    Filed: November 6, 2023
    Publication date: April 11, 2024
    Inventors: Meredith McGee, Joseph W. Boggs, John Chae, Amorn Wongsarnpigoon, Maria E. Bennett
  • METHOD AND SYSTEM OF MECHANICAL NERVE STIMULATION FOR PAIN RELIEF
    Publication number: 20240065931
    Abstract: A system and method of using a lead introduced to a subject proximate to a region of pain is contemplated to deliver pain relief without the need for multiple needle insertions or electrical stimulation. The three-dimensional lead may include spring-like characteristics and/or coils to translate mechanical energy into the therapy.
    Type: Application
    Filed: November 6, 2023
    Publication date: February 29, 2024
    Inventors: Meredith McGee, Nathan Crosby, John Chae, Joseph W. Boggs
  • Electrical stimulator for peripheral stimulation
    Patent number: 11883660
    Abstract: Neurostimulation assemblies, systems, and methods make possible the providing of short-term therapy or diagnostic testing by providing electrical connections between muscles and/or nerves inside the body and stimulus generators and/or recording instruments mounted on the surface of the skin or carried outside the body. The assembly affords maximum patient mobility and comfort through differentiated components having minimal profiles and connected by way of detachable and adjustable connections.
