METHOD AND DEVICE FOR APPLYING ELECTROMUSICAL TREATMENT Russian patent published in 2005 - IPC

FIELD: medicine.

SUBSTANCE: method involves concurrently acting upon patient auditory system with acoustic signal produced by a musical composition selected on basis of patient health state and electric signals of the same musical composition acting upon patient skin. The electric signals amplitude-modulated with depth of 15-85%, act upon the patient via adhesive skin electrodes during 15-40 min. Hearing-add device is subjected to acoustic signals amplitude-modulated with depth of 15% and higher. Amplitude-modulation frequency is selected within the limits of 1.2-9.8 Hz. Modulation is carried out with frequency corresponding to patient disease frequency and action power is chosen on basis of subjective patient sensations. Device has unit for performing musical composition, the first and the second power amplifier, matching unit, adhesive electrodes and electroacoustic converter as well as electrostimulation modulator, acoustic modulator, the first and the second modulation depth regulator, the first and the second power control unit. Musical signal reproduction output unit is connected to the first inputs of electrostimulation modulator and acoustic modulator, which second inputs are connected to input of introduced controllable modulation frequency oscillator and modulation depth regulators are connected to their third inputs. Electrostimulation modulator output is connected to adhesive electrodes via the first power amplifier and matching unit. Sound modulator is connected to the electroacoustic converter via the second power amplifier. The first and the second power regulator are connected to the second inputs of the first and the second power amplifier. Unit for recording sessions is additionally introduced for replicating therapeutic sessions, its first input being connected to the electrostimulation modulator and the second one to the sound modulator output.

EFFECT: enhanced effectiveness of treatment.
