An Interface for Nerve Recording and Stimulation with Cuff Electrodes
A nerve cuff electrode interface capable of both stimulating and recording from a nerve is described. The interface also rejects the EMG contamination in the recordings using reactive components without adding noise to the ENG signal. A transformer is added to the design for noise matching and the signal-to-noise ratio improvement is evaluated for a specific amplifier INTRODUCTION Electroneurog...

متن کاملEvidence-Based Evaluation of Physiological Effects of Standing and Walking in Individuals with Spinal Cord Injury
Spinal Cord Injury (SCI) is damage to spinal cord, which is categorized according to the extent of functional loss, sensation loss and inability of the subjects to stand and walk. The patients use two transportation systems including orthosis and wheelchair. It was claimed that standing and walking bring some benefits such as decreasing bone osteoporosis, prevention of pressure sores, and impro...
متن کاملNerve Injury Induced Pain and Modulation by Spinal Cord Stimulation
Chronic neuropathic pain caused by injury to or disease in the nervous system is relatively common and results in major suffering, poor quality of life and incapacity. Such pain is a therapeutic challenge because a considerable portion of the patients fails to benefit from pharmacotherapy. Therefore, there is a need for alternative treatment modalities. Spinal cord stimulation (SCS) has proven ...
متن کاملTherapeutic Stimulation for Restoration of Function After Spinal Cord Injury.
Paralysis due to spinal cord injury can severely limit motor function and independence. This review summarizes different approaches to electrical stimulation of the spinal cord designed to restore motor function, with a brief discussion of their origins and the current understanding of their mechanisms of action. Spinal stimulation leads to impressive improvements in motor function along with s...
