The IB-Stim is a percutaneous electrical nerve field stimulator (PENFS) system intended to be used in patients 8-21 years of age with functional abdominal pain associated with irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) and functional dyspepsia (FD). The IB-Stim is intended to be used for 120 hours per week, using 1 device per week for 4 consecutive weeks, through application to branches of Cranial Nerves V, VII, IX and X, and the occipital nerves identified by transillumination, as an aid in the reduction of pain when combined with other therapies for IBS and FD. FD patients for whom IB-Stim is indicated have also been shown to experience reduction of nausea symptoms.

IB-Stim stimulator is a battery-operated micro-stimulation appliance weighing 5 grams designed as a disposable product for a single use. IB-Stim stimulator is placed behind the patient's ear and connected to stimulation needles on the auricle. IB-Stim stimulator offers regular therapy over several days. The appliance transmits low-frequency electric pulses. IB-Stim is a device system that consists of a (1) percutaneous electrical nerve field stimulator (PENFS); (2) sterile multi-pin wire harness array; (3) round bandages to fasten the appliance leads, stimulator skin adhesive, alcohol swab, transparent dressing, biohazard bag, and Patient ID card; (4) tweezers; (5) surgical marker; and (6) transilluminator for use in transillumination technique that aids in needle implantation. The wire harness array consists of 4 leads. The 1-1-1-4 configuration consists of three single-needle leads, and one 4-needle array. The transilluminator emits a light for use in the trans-illumination technique to aid the clinician in identifying the nerve bundles in the ear.

The Transcutaneous Electrical Applicator (TEA) is a transcutaneous electrical nerve field stimulator system intended to be used in adult patients with functional abdominal pain associated with irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) through application to Cranial Nerves V, VI, IX and X, and the occipital nerves, as an aid in the reduction of pain when combined with other therapies for IBS. TEA device is intended to be used for 7-120 hours per week up to 3 consecutive weeks.

The TEA Device is a non-invasive, battery-operated, prescription-based transcutaneous electrical nerve field stimulator indicated for use in adult patients with functional abdominal pain associated with the irritable bowel syndrome (IBS). The system includes the following components: TEA Device, lead cable, USB charging cable, USB power adapter, electrode pads, holding clip, and TEA IBS app. The device can be used in clinical environments (i.e., outpatient clinics and hospitals) and/or at home. The TEA Device is powered by an internal rechargeable lithium polymer battery and uses a microprocessor to control the working modes, the waveform and strength of the output pulse. The electric pulse generator is based on a current source circuit. The power management module contains a DC-DC boost conversion circuit that provides the required voltage for the electric pulse generator. The TEA Device is able to connect with the TEA IBS app, which is located on a smartphone. The user interface is available on both the TEA Device and TEA IBS app. The user can power on/off the device, adjust treatment time and treatment intensity. Treatment time is adjustable within the of range 5~240 minutes per treatment session with a maximal operating time of 8.6 hours per day. In addition, there is over-load, over-current and no-load protection as well as an automatic shut-off function. The Bluetooth transceiver module is responsible for communication between the TEA Device and TEA IBS app located on a smartphone.

The First Relief v1 is a percutaneous electrical nerve field stimulator (PENFS) system intended to be used in patients 11-18 years of age with functional abdominal pain associated with irritable bowel syndrome (IBS). The First Relief v1 is intended to be used for 120 hours per week up to 3 consecutive weeks, through application to Cranial Nerves V, VII, IX and X, and the occipital nerves identified by trans-illumination, as an aid in the reduction of pain when with other therapies for IBS.

The First Relief v1 is designed to aid in the reduction of pain when combined with other therapies of IBS in patients 11 - 18 years of age with Functional Pain associated with the Irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) by the method of Cranial electrical stimulation at the auricular stimulation points. The First Relief v1 is a wearable, battery-operated device that is designed to administer Periodical low level electrical pulses to the ear over Five days / 120 hours from the time of activation of the device. The electrical pulse from the device will be delivered to the branches of Cranial Nerves (V, VII, IX and X) on the ear through a set of wire assembly and Stimulation needles. Three zinc air batteries with 1.4 V each provides the required stimulation energy for a maximum of 120 hours. There are three Stimulation electrodes and one ground electrode - which constitute of a needle and lead/ wire with the snap-fit ring. The stimulation needles are inserted at three specific points, which have the ability to stimulate the cranial nerves. The ground electrode is inserted at one specific point (constant in all treatments) which forms the functional earthing to the device. This constant current source guarantees equivalent stimulation energy regardless of the individual impedance of the skin. The stimulation pattern consists of Rectangular pulses with differing inter-pulse intervals.

The IB-Stim is a device that delivers electrical stimulation through percutaneous electrodes to areas usually innervated by branches of occipital nerves and cranial nerves V, VII, IX and X that are located by transillumination. The device consists of (1) a percutaneous electrical nerve field stimulator (PENFS), (2) a multi-pin wire harness percutaneous electrode array, and (3) a pen light for use in the transillumination technique that aids in positioning of the percutaneous electrodes (Figure 1). The wire harness percutaneous electrode array consists of 4 leads. The 1-1-1-4 configuration consists of three single-needle leads, and one 4-needle array (Figure 2). The stimulator is placed behind the ear and the percutaneous electrodes are positioned utilizing the transillumination function of the device (Figure 1). The transillumination technique assists in the visualization of the vasculature of the ear to aid in the placement of the percutaneous electrodes near the nerve branches in the ear.
