A tissue modulation device, for treating at least one of obesity, metabolic syndrome, and Type 2 diabetes in a patient, is described. The device includes a storage module having computer-readable instructions for delivering an electrical stimulation pattern to a splanchnic nerve of the patient. The stimulation pattern includes at least one on-time. The on-time includes at least one of a suprathreshold period and a subthreshold period. The splanchnic nerve is selected from the group consisting of the greater splanchnic nerve, the lesser splanchnic nerve, and the least splanchnic nerve. The pattern is effective to ameliorate at least one attendant condition of obesity, metabolic syndrome, and Type 2 diabetes in the patient. The attendant condition includes dyslipidemia, hypertension, hyperinsulinemia, hyperglycemia, and/or insulin resistance.

L'invention concerne un dispositif de modulation tissulaire servant à traiter l'obésité et/ou le syndrome métabolique et/ou le diabète de type 2 chez un patient. Ce dispositif comprend un module de stockage comportant des instructions lisibles par ordinateur pour fournir un schéma de stimulation électrique à un nerf splanchnique du patient. Ce schéma de stimulation comprend au moins une durée de marche. Cette durée de marche comprend au moins une période supraliminaire et une période infraliminaire. Le nerf splanchnique est sélectionné dans le groupe comprenant le nerf grand splanchnique, le nerf petit splanchnique et le nerf splanchnique inférieur. Ce schéma est efficace pour améliorer au moins un état associé à l'obésité, au syndrome métabolique et au diabète de type 2 chez le patient. Cet état associé comprend la dyslipidémie, l'hypertension, l'hyperinsulinisme, l'hyperglycémie et/ou l'insulinorésistance.
