The Nerivio is intended for acute treatment of migraine with or without aura in patients 18 years of age or older. It is a prescription use, self-administered device for use in the home environment at the onset of migraine headache or aura.

The Nerivio is a wearable, battery-powered device that is controlled by a mobile application. The system delivers low energy electrical pulses to the upper arm for 45 minutes per treatment, after which the device turns off automatically. The device hardware consists of an armband intended to be worn on a user's upper arm. The armband contains the electronic circuitry and the battery in a plastic storage case as well as two electrodes that are attached to the interior of the armband and placed against the user's skin. The device is operated and controlled via software that is installed and run on a user's personal mobile device such as a mobile phone or tablet. The device hardware communicates with the mobile application through a Bluetooth protocol. This mobile application software allows the user to control the stimulation intensity from 0 to 100% (representing intensity levels of 0- 40mA), to start or stop the stimulation program, and to view device status such as the device's connection state, a progress bar for stimulation duration, battery level, and user notifications. The patient is instructed to adjust the intensity to the strongest stimulation level below the perceived pain level. Treatments with Nerivio are intended to be self-administered by the user immediately after the onset of migraine headache or aura.
