摘要:
One aspect of the present disclosure relates a system that can alter (e.g., block or attenuate) conduction in a nerve by transcutaneous DC application (tDCB). The system can include a current generator that generates a DC. A first skin electrode can be coupled to the current generator to deliver the DC transcutaneously through a target nerve to a second skin electrode. Conduction in the target nerve is directly altered as a result of an electric field generated in response to the DC.
