摘要: Pulsed electromagnetic field (PEMF) apparatuses and methods of making and using them. In particular, described herein are two-part PEMF apparatuses that include a self-contained, lightweight, small, compact (e.g., in some variations, wearable) generator unit that is adapted to releasably and replaceably mate with an applicator unit. The generator unit typically includes a power source and a controller that generated PEMF waveforms to be applied, including the shape and timing of the PEMF waveforms. The applicator unit typically includes a radio frequency (RF) power amplifier, a loop antenna, and impedance matching circuitry for matching the impedances for the connection between the antenna loop and the RF power amplifier. Thus, the generator module may control the application of PEMF signals without requiring impedance matching between the separable generator unit and the applicator unit. The applicator unit can include a plurality of variable capacitors that can be used to tune the PEMF signals.

摘要: Systems for converting personal communications devices (e.g., smart phones) into devices for directly or wirelessly delivering either the native RF communications EMF signal or shaped and calibrated electromagnetic signals to promote cell and tissue growth, repair, and maintenance in plants, animals and humans which can modulate biochemical signaling pathways. In particular, described herein are systems, devices and methods for converting mobile communications devices (including PDAs, cell phones, mobile phones, etc.) to provide therapeutically-relevant EMF therapy (e.g., PEMF therapy), as well as methods of treating a patient using personal communications devices (PCDs) running an application for the delivery and monitoring of EMF therapy to a patient from the PCD.

摘要: Described herein are methods of treating neurological injury and conditions, in particular symptoms and complications arising from or caused by a stroke. These treatment methods can include the steps of generating a pulsed electromagnetic field from a pulsed electromagnetic field source and applying the pulsed electromagnetic field in proximity to a target region.

摘要: Embodiments of the invention include methods of treating a patient with physiological responses arising from an injury or condition, such as post-operative pain, traumatic brain injury, and cognitive defects. These treatment methods can include the steps of generating a pulsed electromagnetic field from a pulsed electromagnetic field source which is configured to simultaneously increase the rate of ion-dependent signaling, such as CaM/NO/cGMP signaling and to minimize the rate of inhibition of such signaling by natural compounds and applying the pulsed electromagnetic field in proximity to a target region affected by the injury or condition for a first treatment interval followed by an inter-treatment period with no electromagnetic field between treatment intervals to reduce a physiological response to the injury or condition.

摘要: Apparatus and methods for delivering electromagnetic signals configured specifically to accelerate the asymmetrical kinetics of the binding of intracellular ions to their respective intracellular buffers, to enhance the biochemical signaling pathways plant animal and human molecules, cells, tissues, organs, portions of entire organisms and entire organisms employ for growth, repair and maintenance. Described herein are devices and methods that utilize repetitive bursts of waveforms configured to maximize the bound concentration of intracellular ions at their associated molecular buffers to enhance the biochemical signaling pathways living systems employ for growth, repair and maintenance. For example the systems and methods described herein may drive the binding of calcium to calmodulin (CaM), thereby enhancing the CaM-dependent nitric oxide (NO)/cyclic guanosine monophosphate (cGMP) signaling pathway.

摘要: A method for controlling levels of glucose and lipids in the blood of a patient having non-alcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH) includes generating an electromagnetic signal and coupling the electromagnetic signal to a target structure in the patient's liver to a induce a pulsed magnetic field in the target structure. The signal may include bursts of sinusoidal, rectangular, chaotic, and/or random waveforms, having a frequency content in a range of about 0.01 Hz to about 100 MHz at about 1 to about 100,000 waveforms per second, a burst duration from about 1 μsec to about 100 msec, a burst repetition rate from about 0.01 to about 1000 bursts/second. The induced magnetic field may have a peak amplitude of between 2 and 20 μT. The treatment may be repeated between 1 and 3 times per day every day for at least one week.

摘要: Methods and apparatuses (including systems, devices, etc.) for the treatment of neurological disorders, and particularly multiple sclerosis (MS) by the application of electromagnetic fields (EMF), and in particular, pulsed electromagnetic fields (PEMF), including a subset of PEMF in a radio frequency domain (e.g., pulse-modulated radio frequency or PRF). This treatment may prevent or delay the onset, and/or may reduce the severity of the onset of MS and MS-related symptoms.
