摘要: According to various embodiments of a method for modulating autonomic neural activity in a body having a spinal cord, a subclavian vein and thoracic lymphatic vessels that include a thoracic duct and a right lymphatic duct, at least one programmed therapy is implemented using an implanted medical device to modulate autonomic neural activity. Implementing the therapy includes increasing or decreasing sympathetic activity in sympathetic nerves branching from a first region of the spinal cord using a first electrode in the thoracic duct, and further includes increasing or decreasing parasympathetic activity in parasympathetic nerves adjacent to the desired thoracic lymphatic vessel or sympathetic activity in sympathetic nerves branching from a second region of the spinal cord using a second electrode in the desired thoracic lymphatic vessel.
