CA 2561336

The invention relates to a device for desynchronizing neuronal brain activity. According to the invention, the activity in at least two partial zones of a brain area or at least two functionally related brain areas is reset by means of two electrodes, surprisingly resulting in desynchronization in the targeted population of neurons of the patient and the symptoms being repressed. The inventive device comprises at least two stimulation electrodes (2) which are triggered by a control mechanism so as to cause synchronization in the local environment thereof. Preferably, the stimuli of the N electrodes are essentially out of phase by 1/N.

L'invention concerne un dispositif de désynchronisation de l'activité cérébrale neuronale. Selon l'invention, ladite activité est soumise à une réinitialisation dans au moins deux parties d'une zone cérébrale ou au moins deux zones cérébrales fonctionnellement associées, au moyen d'au moins deux électrodes. Etonnamment, une désynchronisation apparaît dans la population neuronale concernée, et les symptômes disparaissent chez une personne malade. Le dispositif selon l'invention comporte au moins deux électrodes de stimulation (2), commandées par un système de commande de telle manière qu'elles provoquent une synchronisation dans leur environnement. De préférence, les stimulations des N électrodes présentent essentiellement un décalage de phase temporel de 1/N.
