SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR TREATING BLOOD CLOTS WITH NERVE STIMULATION

Abstract

Systems and methods are provided for treating blood clots associated with a replicating pathogen, such as a virus in the coronaviridae family. The systems and methods include applying an electrical impulse transcutaneously through the outer skin surface of the patient to a cervical branch of the vagus nerve of the patient. The electrical impulse is sufficient to reduce a number of antibodies associated with blood clotting to reduce a level of blood clotting in the patient. The systems and methods are particularly useful for treating post-COVID conditions or post-acute sequelae of COVID-19 that develop in “long-haul” or COVID patients.
