Abstract
A system includes a processor configured to generate stimulation control signals in response to a detection of a respiratory disorder. The system further includes at least one kinesthetic effector with a vibrating electromechanical transducer applied to a site on a patient's skin for delivering a kinesthetic stimulation energy determined by the control signals. The processor is further configured to determine the effectiveness of a stimulation by detecting a cessation of the respiratory disorder. The processor is further configured to extend the stimulation control signals for a determined duration following the cessation of the respiratory disorder.
