Screen Printed Fabric Electrode Array for Wearable Functional Electrical Stimulation
Functional electrical stimulation (FES) activates nerves using electrical currents, and is widely used in medical applications to assist movement of patients with central nervous system lesions. The recent emergence of small electrode arrays enables greater muscle selectivity and reduces fatigue compared to the use of traditional large electrodes; however existing fabrication techniques are exp...
متن کاملMulti-field surface electrode for selective electrical stimulation.
We designed a 24-field array and an on-line control box that selects which and how many of 24 fields will conduct electrical charge during functional electrical stimulation. The array was made using a conductive microfiber textile, silver two-component adhesive, and the conductive ink imprint on the polycarbonate. The control box comprised 24 switches that corresponded one-to-one to the fields ...
متن کاملGait kinematics improvement as the result of using multi-pad electrode stimulation for treating foot drop
Recovery after stroke is commonly followed by the gait therapy to regain some independence in daily living. Motor weakness, poor motor control and spasticity result in an altered gait pattern and increased energy expenditure during walking. In more than 30% patients some of the gait impairments remain chronic. Ineffective ankle dorsiflexion during swing (foot drop) and failure to achieve heel s...
متن کاملSurface-patterned electrode bioreactor for electrical stimulation.
We present a microscale cell culture system with an interdigitated microarray of excimer-laser-ablated indium tin oxide electrodes for electrical stimulation of cultured cells. The system has been characterized in a range of geometeries and stimulation regimes via electrochemical impedance spectroscopy and used to culture primary cardiomyocytes and human adipose derived stem cells. Over 6 days ...
متن کاملFlexible Electrode Array for Retinal Stimulation
In this Work, ITO/PET (Indium Tin Oxide / Polyethylene Terephthalate) electrode structure which provides biocompatibility, mechanical stability and flexibility is fabricated. Flexible ITO/PET implantable electrode array for a retina has been developed. The electrode array is fabricated on a thin PET/ITO substrate and is encapsulated using, SU-8, an insulating material. PET substrate and SU-8 po...
