Abstract
A system for relieving pain of a user includes an electromechanical transducer configured to generate generate tactile sound waves (vibrations) with a frequency between 5 Hz and 200 Hz, a holder configured to keep the transducer in a fixed position adjacent to the mesenterial and internal organs' Pacinian corpuscles located in the abdominal cavity of the user, and a controller configured to control the amplitude and frequency of the transducer.
Claims34
System for relieving pain of a user comprising:
- an electromechanical transducer arranged to generate tactile sound waves with a frequency between 5 Hz and 200 Hz;
- a holder arranged to keep the transducer in a fixed position adjacent to the mesenterial and internal organs' Pacinian corpuscles located in the abdominal cavity of the user, said transducer arranged to stimulate the Pacinian corpuscles in the mesenterium and the organs of the abdominal cavity;
- a computer implemented system for determining a set of tactile sound wave parameters, wherein the computer implemented system is configured to perform the steps of:
- executing a predefined sequence of tests of tactile sound waves between 5 Hz and 200 Hz, stimulating the Pacinian corpuscles located in the abdominal cavity of the user, wherein each test corresponds to a set of frequency and amplitude parameters,
- collecting brain response data from the user for each test, obtaining a collection of data,
- selecting the most efficient set of tactile sound wave parameters for the user by ranking the collection of data of brain responses for each of the tests;
- and
- a controller arranged to control the amplitude and frequency of the transducer according to the selected set of tactile sound parameters.
5 more elements
Method for determining a set of tactile sound wave parameters, comprising the steps of:
- providing a collection of brain response data from a user, wherein said brain response data was collected while the Pacinian corpuscles located in the abdominal cavity of the user were stimulated by executing a predefined sequence of tests of tactile sound waves between 5 Hz and 200 Hz, wherein each test corresponds to a set of frequency and amplitude parameters;
- selecting the most efficient set of tactile sound wave parameters for the user by ranking the collection of data of brain responses for each of the tests.
