ABSTRACT:
A neurostimulator for generating stimulation pulses for the central or peripheral nervous system, particularly against pain in the region of the spinal cord includes a control circuit for generating stimulation pulses with a pulse generator whose output is connected with stimulation electrodes. The stimulation pulses are generated at periodic intervals with an activity period corresponding essentially to an effective duration corresponding to a biological half-lifetime of a body's own active substances. The control circuit creates a respective rest period corresponding to a time required by the body's own active substances to regenerate themselves for a corresponding activity period.
