摘要：
Described herein are systems and methods for the treatment of pain using electrical nerve conduction block (ENCB). Contrary to other methods of pain treatment, the ENCB can establish a direct block of neural activity, thereby eliminating the pain. Additionally, the ENCB can be administered without causing electrochemical damage. An example method can include: placing at least one electrode contact in electrical communication with a region of a subject's spinal cord； applying an electrical nerve conduction block (ENCB) to a nerve in the region through the at least one electrode contact； and blocking neural activity with the ENCB to reduce the pain or other unwanted sensation in the subject.
