Device FOR STRENGTHENING, Corpus Cavernosum muscles, Abductor muscles, Transversus abdominis muscle & Pelvic floor muscles by Using Multiple Magnetic Field Generators in the Treatment of Erectile Dysfunction, Urinary Incontinence, Urge incontinence, Stress Urinary Incontinence,
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION:
[0002]
In general, urinary incontinence, urge incontinence, stress urinary incontinence, erectile dysfunction, is an unintentional or upon stress involuntary leakage of urine, and is a condition of abnormal urination that creates social or hygienic problems ,mood swing hot & cold flushes also depends upon many reasons like hormonal changes, menopause and so on , & in males erectile dysfunction can also occur due to various physical & psychological causes .
[0003]
The main treatment for these diseases has been surgery. In recent years, however, non-surgical treatments are preferred due to possible complications associated with surgery, and only a small limber of patients with severe symptoms undergo surgery.
[0004]
Non-surgical treatment options for urinary incontinence, urge incontinence, stress urinary incontinence, erectile dysfunction include pelvic floor muscle exercises (Kegels) biofeedback, electrical stimulation therapy, and magnetic field stimulation therapy, hormonal therapies
[0005]
Kegels exercises is the most basic and traditional method and an economical and effective way of treatment, but it is difficult for patients to correctly perform Kegels exercises, which leads to unsatisfactory treatment results.
[0006]
Biofeedback helps to exercise the pelvic floor muscles correctly and can be used as an adjunct to pelvic floor muscle exercises but has the inconvenience of having to take off clothes and insert a probe into the vagina & it also does not work in mood swings, hot & cold flushes & in males’ erectile dysfunction.
[0007]
Electrical stimulation can be used to assist in strengthening pelvic floor muscles by involuntarily (passively) contracting pelvic muscles through a transmission of electrical impulses, but this technique also has the inconvenience of having to take off clothes and insert a probe into the vagina & it also does not work in mood swings, hot & cold flushes & males’ erectile dysfunction.
[0008]
Magnetic field stimulation is based on the same principle as the electrical stimulation, involves electric currents that work more effectively on motor nerves than on sensory nerves, and can be used to supplement the electrical stimulation. In addition, the magnetic field stimulation is an effective non-surgical method and the most non-invasive treatment for urinary incontinence, urge incontinence, stress urinary incontinence, erectile dysfunction.
[0009]
However, in the ease of conventional magnetic field stimulation, usually one magnetic field probe or maximum 3 magnetic field probe is provided and only the pelvic floor muscles, abductor muscles & Transversus abdominis muscle are stimulated with a magnetic field which leads to unsatisfactory treatment results especially for the patients of Erectile dysfunction.

The embodiments described in this specification and the configurations shown in the drawings are merely the most preferred embodiments of the present disclosure and do not represent all the technical ideas of the present disclosure. Therefore, there may be various equivalents and modifications that may be substituted for the embodiments and configurations at the time of this application.
[0075]
FIG. 1 is a schematic diagram showing an embodiment of an Device for treating urinary incontinence, urge incontinence, stress urinary incontinence, erectile dysfunction using a magnetic field according to the present disclosure. Referring to FIG. 1, the embodiment of an Device for treating urinary incontinence, urge incontinence, stress urinary incontinence, erectile dysfunction using a magnetic field according to the present disclosure will be described in detail below.
[0076]
Referring to FIG. 1 , the embodiment of an Device for treating urinary incontinence, urge incontinence, stress urinary incontinence, erectile dysfunction , urge incontinence, stress urinary incontinence, urge incontinence, stress urinary incontinence, erectile dysfunction , treatment of mood swing, hot & cold flushes in females during & after menopause, back pain and abdominal pain & in males in treatment of erectile dysfunction using a magnetic field according to the present disclosure includes multiple magnetic field generation units M100 that individually apply magnetic fields to different muscles that affect urinary incontinence, urge incontinence, stress urinary incontinence, erectile dysfunction .
[0077]
The magnetic field generation units M100 are positioned to apply magnetic fields to different muscles that affect the treatment of urinary incontinence, urge incontinence, stress urinary incontinence, erectile dysfunction of a patient.
[0078]
For example, the magnetic field generation units M100 include: a first magnetic field generation unit M1 that applies a magnetic field to the patient's pelvic floor muscles; a second magnetic field generation unit M2 that applies a magnetic field to the patient’s adductor muscles, a third magnetic field generation unit M3 that applies a magnetic field to the transversus abdominis.
[0079]
The magnetic field generation units M100 may further include a fourth magnetic field generation unit M4 that applies a magnetic field to the corpus cavernosum.
[0080]
The pelvic floor is composed of muscle fibres of the elevator ani, the coccygeus muscle, and associated connective tissue which span the bottom of the pelvis.
[0081]
The adductors are a group of muscles which exist in the inner thigh, the transversus abdominis is a broad muscle that runs across the abdomen, forming the third layer on either side of the abdomen and the corpus cavernosum muscles type of smooth muscle that lines the corpus cavernosum, which is the erectile tissue in the penis, CSM is responsible for the relaxation and contraction of the corpus cavernosum, which allows for penile erection
[0082]
That is, as an example, the first muscle that affects the treatment of urinary incontinence, urge incontinence, stress urinary incontinence, erectile dysfunction of a patient is pelvic floor muscles, the second muscle that affects is the adductors, the third muscle that affects is the transversus abdominis and the fourth one is cavernous smooth muscle.
[0083]
In short, the muscles that affect urinary incontinence, urge incontinence, stress urinary incontinence, erectile dysfunction include the pelvic floor muscles (PFM), adductors, trans-versus abdominis and corpus cavernosum.
[0084]
The pelvic floor muscles are one of these core muscles, located at the bottom of the pelvis. The etymology of pelvis is a washbasin, and the pelvis is like a washbasin that holds the intestines. Here, the bottom of the washbasin corresponds to the pelvic floor muscles.
[0085]
Because of these pelvic floor muscles, the organs do not go down due to gravity.
[0086]
The pelvic floor muscles are the muscles that work when urinating and have the most direct effect on urinary incontinence, urge incontinence, stress urinary incontinence, erectile dysfunction.
[0087]
The pelvic floor muscles are the muscles at the bottom of the two iliac bones and the sacrum, with the vagina in front and the anus behind.
[0088]
The pelvic floor consists of the endopelvic, pelvic diaphragm, and urogenital diaphragm (Sejong Choi, CU2009).
[0089]
Among these three, the endopelvic is a meshwork of smooth muscle fibres, ligaments, nerves, blood vessels, and soil tissues entangled around the urethral meatus, ischiocavernosus muscle, vaginal opening, ischial tuberosity, anal sphincter, coccyx, so voluntary movement is impossible and thus muscle-strengthening exercises cannot be performed. The pelvic diaphragm a muscular layer in the lower urethral triangle that serves to support the pelvic organs and is innervated by the pudendal nerve and rapidly contract to maintain urinary containment during coughing and sneezing.
[0090]
The urogenital diaphragm forms sphincter urethra loops around the urethra to enable micturition control and can be voluntarily controlled to strengthen muscle through exercises (Sejong Choi, CU2009).
[0091]
The adductor muscles exist in the inner thigh and consists of the adductor brevis, adductor longus, and adductor magnus, which are responsible for adduction of the femur and hip joint. [FIG. 2] As shown in the anatomical shape of the adductors, all three adductor muscles anatomically originate from the pelvis, such as the pubic bone, and are connected to the inner or posterior part of the femur. According to the research results published in the Journal of the Korean Society for Exercise Rehabilitation by Yoon Jae-Rang, Lee Mi-Suk Lee Mun-Jin, etc. (2010), the anatomical location of the adductor muscles means that it is correlated with the contractile force of the pelvic floor muscles such as the sphincter.
[0092]
According to the results of a 4-week “adductor” exercise conducted by Seong-hoon Na, Gil-young Cheon, Yong-bal Yun, Cheol-won Lee, etc. (2010) targeting middle-aged women, lower extremity adductor strengthening exercise for middle-aged women can influence vaginal contraction pressure and relieve urinary incontinence, urge incontinence, stress urinary incontinence, erectile dysfunction symptoms.
[0093]
In addition, according to the research results presented by Peschers U. M., Gingelmaier, A., Jundt, K., Leib, B., Dimpfl, T., etc. (CU2001), women use their adductors to contract their pelvic floor muscles. Considering the results of many previous studies such as the above, the adductors are muscles that have a very close effect on urinary incontinence, urge incontinence, stress urinary incontinence, erectile dysfunction. Thus, it is necessary to strengthen the adductor muscles to relieve the symptoms of urinary incontinence, urge incontinence, stress urinary incontinence, erectile dysfunction.
[0094]
The transverse abdominis muscle is the deepest of the abdominal muscles, cannot be touched, and is the only abdominal muscle with fibers that are arranged in parallel (arranged in a horizontal direction) (Jin-woo Jeong, 2014). The transverse abdominis surrounds organs such as the stomach, small intestine, and large intestine, etc., and the adductor group including the adductor brevis muscle, adductor lingus muscle, and adductor magnus muscle like a corset. The transverse abdominis determines the size of the space within the abdomen and plays a role in maintaining the stability of the lumbar spine and body balance (Hodges, P. W. & Gandervia, S. C., CU2000). Although the primary function of the transversus abdominis is to rotate the trill, the transversus abdominis provides segmental stability of the spine by increasing internal abdominal pressure. In addition, the transversus abdominis plays a role in controlling precise movement of the trunk so that only necessary movement can occur. The transversus abdominis is the first muscle that contracts deep inside when a person moves his/her arms and legs.
[0095]
Several previous studies have reported that the function of the transversus abdominis is related to the pelvic floor muscles and consequently affects urinary incontinence, urge incontinence, stress urinary incontinence, erectile dysfunction. Isacowitz, R. (CU2006) claimed that the muscles of the body were intricately intertwined, so when the transverse abdominis contracted, the pelvic floor muscles also contracted. Sapsford, R. R., Hodges, P. W., Richardson C. A., Cooprer, D. H., Markwell, S. J., Jull, G. A. (CU2001), etc. presented research results that when the pelvic floor muscles were contracted, the transverse abdominis muscles were activated the most regardless of the posture of the lumbar spine, and conversely, as a result of various isometric contraction tests for the abdominal muscles, electromyographic (EMG) activation of the pubis coccyx and external anal sphincter increased.
[0096]
Neumann P., Gill, V. (CU2002) suggested an indirect muscle strengthening exercise method that simultaneously contracts both muscles by examining the activity of the pelvic floor muscles and abdominal muscles with EMG. Dumoulin C., Lemieux, M. C., Bourbonnais, D., Gravel, D., Bravo, C., Morin, M. (CU2004) studied the effect of a pelvic floor muscle exercise method that includes abdominal muscle exercise at the same time. Hung, H. C., Hslao, S. M. Chif, S. Y., Lin, H. H., Tsauo, J. Y. (2010) proposed a method of training the combined function of the diaphragm, deep muscles, and pelvic floor muscles as a way to relieve symptoms of urinary incontinence, urge incontinence, stress urinary incontinence, erectile dysfunction. Bo, K., Morkved, S., Frawley, H., Sherbum, M. (CU2009) reported that a muscle strengthening method using pelvic floor muscles and transversus abdominis was effective in treating urinary incontinence, urge incontinence, stress urinary incontinence, erectile dysfunction.

NOW Comes to the fourth muscle that is corpus cavernosum muscles.
The corpus cavernosum is the erectile tissue of penis, along with the corpus spongiosum. The corpus spongiosum has also been called the corpus cavernosum urethrae. The corpus spongiosum surrounds the urethra.
There is a corpus cavernosum on either side of ureter. The plural form for the two of them is corpus cavernosa. These spongy bodies, along with the corpus spongiosum, contain blood vessels that make your penis hard when they fill with blood. They also have nerves that help with these changes.
Function
What does the corpus cavernosum do?
The corpus cavernosa and the corpus spongiosum make reproduction possible. The blood that fills these spongy tissues makes your penis hard enough to penetrate the vagina during sexual intercourse. Muscle tissue also helps with the contractions that push semen, containing sperm, out of the tip of the penis.
Anatomy
Where is the corpus cavernosum located?
The corpus cavernosum is inside the penis. Specifically, the corpus cavernosa is part of the penis, the male organ for sexual intercourse.
The penis has three parts:
The root, or the part of the penis that attaches to your abdomen.
The body or shaft, which is shaped like a tube or cylinder. It's here that the corpus cavernosa and corpus spongiosum reside.
The glans also called the head, which is the cone-shaped end of the penis. The opening of the urethra — the tube that transports both semen and urine out of the body — is located at the tip of the glans penis.
Semen, which contains sperm, is expelled (ejaculated) through the end of the penis when a person reaches sexual climax (orgasm). When the penis is erect, the flow of urine is blocked from the urethra, allowing only semen to be ejaculated at orgasm.
What is the corpus cavernosum made of?
The corpus cavernosum is made mostly of smooth muscle. It also has structures called intracavernosal struts (or pillars), which are thought to be important in keeping the erectile tissue in place. The corpus cavernosa also has hollow spaces lined with a certain type of cell called epithelial cells. These cells may be involved in erectile dysfunction. When an erection occurs, this space fills with blood and becomes rigid. (A clinical study and note from clevelandclinic.org/health/body/22FBG1-corpus-cavernosum) [0097]
