  • Patent number: 5776170
    Abstract: An apparatus for producing analgesia through electrical stimulation is disclosed wherein the apparatus comprises two or more electrodes adapted to supply electrical signals to two or more locations on the surface of a body overlying the central nervous system. The apparatus further comprises signal generating means connectable to the electrodes which supply electrical pulses featuring rapid rising and falling phases at parameters of pulse width, frequency and amplitude such that analgesic effects tend to be stimulated in the central nervous system or its adnexa, while stimulating peripheral nerves that lie between the electrodes and the central nervous system to a lesser extent or not all.
