摘要： The invention relates to a device (10) for applying transcutaneous electrical nerve stimulation via an electrode (22), and to a method of transcutaneous electrical nerve stimulation. The device comprises the electrode being arranged for detecting a change of a skin impedance and being configured for switching from a stimulation mode of operation (30) for stimulating the nerve into a recalibration mode of operation (32) upon detection of the changed skin impedance. In an embodiment, the device comprises a plurality of electrodes being configured for detecting the change of the skin impedance and being configured for adjusting an electrical current flowing through the skin via the plurality of electrodes.
