38 results about "Sympathetic activity" patented technology

What is Sympathetic Activity. 1. The activity of nervous system that takes over where an immediate and effective response is required. The sympathetic nervous system works alongside the parasympathetic nervous system and is known as the involuntary system because the actions caused by it are not consciously executed.

Treatment of conditions through modulation of the autonomic nervous system

ActiveUS20050021092A1Increasing parasympathetic activity/sympathetic activity ratioElectrotherapyArtificial respirationNervous systemSubject matter
Methods are provided for treating a subject for a condition caused by an abnormality in the subject's autonomic nervous system. In accordance with the subject methods, at least a portion of a subject's autonomic nervous system is modulated to increase the parasympathetic activity / sympathetic activity ratio in a manner that is effective to treat the subject for the condition. Certain embodiments include modulating at least a portion of a subject's autonomic nervous system by inhibiting and / or increasing activity in at least a portion of the subject's autonomic nervous system. The subject methods find use in the treatment of a variety of different conditions, where such conditions include various disease conditions. Also provided are systems and kits for use in practicing the subject methods.

Method, apparatus and computer program for automatic non-invasive blood pressure measurement

A method, apparatus and computer program product are disclosed for non-invasively determining blood pressure of a subject. To improve the specificity of automatic blood pressure determinations in a patient monitor provided with a non-invasive blood pressure determination unit, a physiological index indicative of sympathetic activity is derived from a subject, variations in the physiological index are monitored, and the blood pressure determination unit is instructed to initiate blood pressure determination when the variations fulfill a predetermined condition.

Pharmaceutical formulation for treating cardiovascular diseases

The invention discloses a pharmaceutical formulation for treating cardiovascular diseases. The pharmaceutical formulation comprises chondroitin sulfate, notopterygium root, cornua cervi pantotrichum, honeysuckle, radix scrophulariae, sucrose octaacetate, orange essence, agastache rugosus essence, betacyclodextrin, longstamen onion bulb, hawthorn, corydalis tuber, radix pueraiae, red flower, peach kernel, ginkgo leaf, selfheal, pine needle, sophora japonica, chrysanthemum indicum, pig's bile, dried white peony root, H2 receptor antagonist and beta 1 receptor antagonist. The pharmaceutical formulation has the advantages that the beta 1 receptor antagonist and the H2 receptor antagonist are combined with the traditional Chinese medicine to prepare new compound drug preparation, the preparation has a sympathetic activity resisting effect in vivo, and the effect directions are consistent; due to the fact that effect targets of the beta 1 receptor antagonist and the H2 receptor antagonist are different, effective synergy is achieved, that is to say, the use amount of the beta 1 receptor antagonist and the H2 receptor antagonist can be reduced, toxic and side effect occurrence rate can be lowered, curative effect can be brought into play through various channels, effective therapeutic effects on the cardiovascular diseases including coronary heart diseases, arrhythmia, hypertension and congestive heart failure can be achieved, and the pharmaceutical formulation is worthy of popularization and application.

Transcutaneous spinal cord stimulation for treatment of psychiatric disorders

Methods of treating a psychiatric disorder in a subject are provided which include placing at least one anode on an area of the subject's back over the dorsal spinal cord at the level of one or more of: thoracic vertebra 7 (T7), 8 (T8), 9 (T9), 10 (T10), 11 (T11), and 12 (T12) and lumbar vertebra 1 (L1); placing at least one cathode on an area of the subject's back which is generally rostral with reference to the anode; connecting the anode and the cathode to at least one source of direct and / or alternating electrical current; delivering direct current to the anode for a treatment period of time, the treatment period of time defining a tsDCS and / or tsACS treatment session, thereby modulating spinal input to the brain of the subject, decreasing sympathetic activity and reducing one or more symptoms and / or comorbidities associated with the psychiatric disorder.
