Mesh electrode for peripheral nerve stimulation.
The implanted peripheral nerve stimulator has a role for pain relief in well-selected patients with pain in a peripheral nerve distribution. We describe an electrode to help simplify the surgical implantation of a peripheral nerve stimulator and also to reduce the possibility of electrode migration following implantation. Design details of the electrode are discussed, as are notes on surgical t...
متن کاملA Parylene Peripheral Nerve Cuff Electrode with Integrated Microfluidics
We present a novel micromachined polymer peripheral nerve interface that combines both electrodes and microfluidic channels in an adjustable cuff sized to interface with rat sciatic nerve. Parylene fluidic channels enable targeted delivery of lysing agents and neurotrophic factors to fascicle sites on the nerve surface, in order to induce axonal sprouting towards electrodes. This Lyse-andAttrac...
متن کاملNanotechnology for peripheral nerve regeneration
Peripheral nerve injuries (PNI) can lead to lifetime loss of function and disfigurement. Different methods such as conventional allograft procedures and using of biological tubes have problems for damaged peripheral nerves reconstruction. Designed scaffolds with natural and synthetic materials are now widely used in the reconstruction of damaged tissues. Utilization of absorbable and non-absorb...
