Abstract

A nerve stimulator according to one embodiment comprises: a pad member including a first pad portion arranged so as to come into contact with the auricle, and a second pad portion arranged so as to come in contact with the external auditory meatus; and a plurality of electrode members provided in the pad member so as to output electro-stimulation, wherein the plurality of electrode members can comprise: a first electrode member provided in the first pad portion so as to come into contact with the auricle; and a second electrode member provided in the second pad portion so as to come into contact with the external auditory meatus.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to a nerve stimulator, and more particularly, to a nerve stimulator capable of outputting optimal electrical stimulation to nerves. Background technique [0002] According to its degree, tinnitus may seriously affect the patient's quality of life, including sleep, work and psychological problems. Various therapies for treating tinnitus include, for example, drug therapy, ganglion block therapy, surgical therapy, masking therapy, magnetic field therapy, or tinnitus retraining therapy. Among them, tinnitus retraining therapy is considered to be the most effective method for treating tinnitus. [0003] Tinnitus retraining therapy includes ongoing counseling therapy (guided counseling) to change negative thoughts about tinnitus, and sound therapy using sound generators (or hearing aids) to gradually reduce sensitivity to tinnitus. [0004] There are two main types of sound therapy: wearing hearing aids to amplify ambient sou...
