Testing electrode suitability for field stimulation of high-threshold biological preparations
Introduction: A problem posed by electrical field (E) stimulation of biological preparations with high excitation threshold is that the E intensity required for excitation is likely to induce water electrolysis at the electrode surface, which can alter the extracellular medium and cause deleterious effects on the cells. In this study, different electrode materials and geometries were tested aim...
متن کاملPerception threshold and electrode position for spinal cord stimulation.
The perception threshold for epidural spinal cord stimulation in chronic pain management was analyzed on 3,923 testing data obtained from 136 implanted patients. The initial areas of paresthesiae due to stimulation were recorded and reported as the stimulation map according to the location of electrodes. Measurement of dorsal thickness of the cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) layer was obtained from 26...
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...
متن کاملCutaneous sensory threshold stimulation with high frequency square-wave current. I. The relationship of electrode dimensions to the sensory threshold.
Numerous methods of studying the sensibility of the skin have been reported. Martin (1) described the threshold of faradic break shocks; Ollendorf (2) used hair strokes, pin pricks, heat and pressure with a probe in normal and abnormal skin to determine differences in sensation; Mayr (3) utilized the pressure of a water manometer on normal and syphilitic skin; Hardy and Wolff (4) introduced the...
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 ...
