Whole Nerve Recordings with the Spiral Nerve Cuff Electrode
The feasibility of whole nerve recordings from the hypoglossal (HG) nerve is demonstrated in acute cats using the spiral nerve cuff electrode. A good contact between the nerve and the electrodes, provided by the spiral nerve cuff due to its self-coiling property, should improve the signal-tonoise ratio. An instrumentation amplifier with very low input noise characteristics is also utilized. The...
متن کاملOn the Spectrum of Nerve Cuff Electrode Recordings
INTRODUCTION In the literature on recording of the electroneurogram (ENG) with nerve cuff electrodes, the influence of the contact configuration and cuff parameters on the amplitude density spectrum is hardly addressed. In contrast, in the literature on electromyography (EMG), the influence of the recording electrode configuration on the EMG spectrum is well recognized, including the dependency...
متن کاملSingle unit conduction velocities from averaged nerve cuff electrode records in freely moving cats.
The conduction velocity of peripheral neurons recorded by wire microelectrodes implanted in intact, freely moving cats was determined on-line using the technique of spike-triggered averaging of nerve cuff electrode records described here. Axonal velocity was estimated from the conduction latency between two adjacent sets of tripolar recording electrodes inside a cuff, thereby avoiding uncertain...
متن کاملEffect of different cuff widths on the motor nerve conduction of the median nerve: an experimental study
BACKGROUND A bloodless operative field is considered mandatory for most surgical procedures on the upper and lower extremity. This is accomplished by using either an Esmarch bandage or a pneumatic tourniquet, but a number of complications are associated with both. Nerve palsy is one of the most frequently encountered complications of this procedure. Wider cuffs have been found to cause reduced ...
متن کاملEffect of Dexamethasone on Preventing Tibial Nerve Conduction Velocity Loss in Tourniquet Neurepathic Rat
Introduction: Ischaemic-reperfusion nerve injury has been suggested as the mechanism for post-tourniquet limb paralysis. As dexamethasone (Dex) has been shown to Prevent ischaemic-reperfusion process in some tissues, we tested the hypothesis that this drug would reduce tourniquet induced nerve injury. Methods: 36 male Wistar rats (200-250 gr) were chosen and divided randomly into 6 equal grou...
