Magnetic coil for pulsed electromagnetic field
First Claim
1. A method for applying an electromagnetic field to a patient comprising the steps of,a) applying one or more therapeutic coil to an injured area of a patient'"'"'s body;
- and b) conducting a periodic electric current to the one or more therapeutic coil to generate an electromagnetic field, wherein said one or more therapeutic coil comprises a core comprising an insulted material and a magnetic shielding material, an electrically conductive wire wrapped a plurality of turns around said core to form a coil.

Abstract
A portable electronic PEMF apparatus comprises a PEMF coil, power supply, and electronic switching means contained therein. The power supply along with the switching means provide periodic electric power to the PEMF coil. The PEMF coil comprises multiple turns of a conductive wire around a core with an elongated cross section. The core comprises a magnetic shield layer of materials such as mu metal or soft iron. The power supply comprises a battery, a regulated voltage source and unregulated voltage source from the battery and electronic switching circuit, powered by the regulated voltage, for electrically connecting the unregulated voltage source to the coil. The electronic switching circuit is tuned to periodically provide power to the coil at a frequency to generate a non-inverting, varying electromagnetic field from the coil.
