titleOfInvention | Treatment of neuropsychiatric disorders by near-diaphragmatic nerve stimulation |
abstract | A method and apparatus for treating patients with neuropsychiatric disorder includes unilaterally or bilaterally stimulating one or both of the left and right branches (19,20) of a patient's vagus nerve directly or indirectly with an electrical pulse signal generated by an implantable neurostimulator (10) with at least one operatively coupled nerve electrode to apply the pulse signal to the selected nerve branch at a location in the vicinity of the patient's diaphragm, either slightly above or slightly below the diaphragm. The implantable neurostimulator (10) is programmable to enable physician programming of electrical and timing parameters of the pulse signal, to generate the desired therapy regimen for alleviating the disorder. Patient activation of the device is permitted in the case of treating a neuropsychiatric disorder such as depression, where the patient is able to sense a symptom of a disorder. |
