Medical engineering students develop a device to relieve migraine pain and reduce its attacks

Migraine pain for a medical engineering student, Rima Ibrahim, prompted her, in cooperation with a group of her colleagues, to develop a device to relieve migraine pain and reduce its attacks in a step that could have a good impact in reducing the suffering of thousands of patients, especially that the mechanism of the device is very simple as it is placed on the head and takes its orders via a mobile application.
Student Ibrahim explained that she suffers from chronic migraine pain, which prompted her, in cooperation with her colleagues, to find a treatment without the need for traditional medicines and their side effects by working on a project that relieves pain and reduces painful attacks.
Medical engineering student, Moayyed Al-Hamu, stated that the device relies on three treatment programs, namely, the therapeutic program when a seizure occurs, which helps to stop it, and its duration is for a full hour.
Medical engineering student Amna Shehadeh explained that the device relies on sending electrical impulses through electrodes to stimulate the trigeminal nerve node with a certain frequency and intensity that rises from zero to 14 amperes to give a feeling of comfort.
For his part, medical engineering student Hussein Elweis pointed out that the device operates on a rechargeable battery and can be manufactured locally at a lower cost than the imported one, with an additional advantage, which is the ability to link it to an application on the mobile phone to facilitate its use.
It is noteworthy that the device cannot be used by children under the age of 8 and those who have metal devices implanted in the head, as a specialist doctor should always be consulted.
