    摘要: The invention relates to a device (1) for transcutaneous stimulation of a nerve of the human body, which device (1) comprises at least one stimulation electrode (2) and at least one reference electrode (3) for transcutaneous nerve stimulation, the at least one stimulation electrode (2) and the at least one reference electrode (3) being connected to a control unit (4) and being able to be supplied with an electrical current from the latter, and the at least one stimulation electrode (2) and the at least one reference electrode (3) being arranged in or on a housing (5) which is designed to be fitted on or in the human ear. To make the nerve stimulation effective and to make it easier to manage for the patient, it is proposed, according to the invention, that the housing (5) has a bow-shaped extension piece (6) designed to be inserted into the auditory canal, said bow-shaped extension piece (6) matching the shape of the entrance to the auditory canal or of the external auditory canal, and with an electrode head (7) which is arranged at the end of the bow-shaped extension piece (6) and which has two contact points (8, 9) for the two electrodes (2, 3).
