Benefits of technology

The patent aims to use a combination of different sensory stimuli to alleviate chronic pain. These stimuli include music, visual, touch, and smell. The goal is to induce frissons, which are positive experiences that help reduce pain. The patent also aims to keep the frissons strong over time to provide longer-lasting pain relief.

Problems solved by technology

If one of the those senses does not work well, the other will not work either because of the relationship between the receptors.

Embodiment Construction

_n">[0187]The objective of this invention is to provide the equipment and the method to use it for the self-care of patients with chronic pain through frisson induction by means of actuators, including a hydraulic circuit with an actuator. Special mention within the stimuli used in this invention is occupied by music, since it has been shown to be the most efficient way of presenting sensory stimuli to elicit frissons and for this reason some of the tactile and visual stimuli have been synchronized with the music (multimodal stimulation).

[0188]FIGS. 1A and 18 show how to use the hydraulic circuit (400), in shoulder strap, with the head in (421) and the flexible tube (405), surrounding the patient's back and allowing to elicit the stimuli and vibrotactiles of this invention. In the back of the patient the flexible tube FIG. 1B is attached to the skin by means of double suction cups (101), loose to maintain the vibration of the tube. The container on the patient's back (102) of FIG. 1...

Abstract

Equipment for self-care of patients with chronic pain, through inducing, intensifying and maintaining their own frissons and where multisensory and multimodal stimuli are used to achieve it; musical, visual, aromatic and vibrotactile and cold are applied on the cutaneous surface of the spine. In addition, the method for using them through perceptual learning is presented. The equipment consists of a computer and a computer system with a music and video player, lighting, presentation of aromas and a closed hydraulic circuit with a hydraulic actuator.

Description

FIELD OF THE INVENTION[0001]This invention provides the equipment and how to use it, for the self-care of patients with chronic pain, by inducing and / or intensifying and / or maintaining their own frissons, by means of multisensory and multimodal stimulations. Among the individual and social benefits provided by this invention is to improve the individual's, family and work life of patients by decreasing the cost of medical treatments, without producing habituation and reducing adverse side effects.INTRODUCTION[0002]The ultimate goal of this invention is to make patients with chronic pain reassure that they are able to regain the ability to have it under control, since ignorance about what is happening to them and feelings of helplessness exacerbate anxiety and fear. Holden R and Holden J. (2013).[0003]The standard definition of chronic pain given by the International Association for the Study of Pain is one that persists beyond normal pain for a tissue over time. In an arbitrary way ...
