Abstract
We have developed a new type of de vice for electric al stimulation of the free nerve endings in the auricle, mainly the vagus nerve, with remote control in which stimulation characteristics of three independent stimulation channels can be adapted to the patient's needs. The effect of stimulation for sleep improvement was demonstrated on 8 female inso mniacs. Two-day full polysomnography data demonstrated objectively improved slee p parameters suchas a decreased sleep objectively improved slee p parameters suchas a decreased sleep latency time and wakefulness after sleep onset. Normalization of sleep structure - an increase of REM sleep and stage 2 with a decrease of stage 1 while stages 3+4 remain approximately the same duration - was evident.
