Experimental electrical stimulation therapy for epilepsy

Current Treatment Options in Neurology, 2005
Electrical stimulation of the nervous system is an attractive possible therapy for intractable epilepsy, but only stimulation of the vagus nerve has been subjected to large, controlled, and completed clinical trials. Controlled trials are in progress for intermittent cycling stimulation of the anterior nuclei of the thalamus, and for cortical ...

Intrapartum nipple stimulation therapy for labor induction: a randomized controlled external pilot study of acceptability and feasibility.

American Journal of Obstetrics & Gynecology MFM, 2022
OBJECTIVE Nipple stimulation is purported as a natural and inexpensive method for inducing labor, but its use is understudied. We aimed to assess whether conducting a large randomized controlled trial comparing intrapartum nipple stimulation therapy ...

Tachyarrhythmia therapy utilizing electrical stimulation: A review

Journal of Medical Engineering & Technology, 1988
The review is structured in such a way as to fall naturally into four main sections. These are as follows: clinical overview of the common mechanisms leading to the generation of tachyarrhythmias; commonly used sensing techniques and algorithms for the detection of tachyarrhythmias; electrical stimulation algorithms used to terminate many of the ...
