摘要:A neural stimulation therapy system for atherosclerotic plaques is provided.One aspect of this disclosure relates to a medical device for applying neural stimulationtherapy for atherosclerotic plaques. The device includes a neural stimulator adapted todeliver an electrical signal through at least one electrode to an autonomic neural target.The device also includes a controller to control the neural stimulator to provide atherapy for atherosclerotic plaques. The device is external to a human body in anembodiment, and includes an implantable medical device (IMD) in various embodiments.According to an embodiment, the device includes a neural stimulation lead connected tothe neural stimulator. The neural stimulator delivers electrical signals with waveformparameters based on sensed arterial blockage levels, according to various embodiments.Other aspects and embodiments are provided herein.
