Journal ArticleDOI
A spiral nerve cuff electrode for peripheral nerve stimulation
TL;DR: The authors hypothesize that unlike traditional cuffs, the spiral cuff potentially can be implanted safely when sized to fit peripheral nerves snugly and results of a preliminary experiment in which snug spiral cuffs were implanted on feline peripheral nerve support the prediction that they may be safe.
Journal ArticleDOI
Selective control of muscle activation with a multipolar nerve cuff electrode
TL;DR: Results indicated that the use of transverse field steering current improved selectivity in cats to study selective activation of medial gastrocnemius, soleus, tibialis anterior, and extensor digitorium longus with a cuff electrode.
Journal ArticleDOI
Electrical properties of implant encapsulation tissue.
Warren M. Grill,J.T. Mortimer +1 more
TL;DR: The results indicate that the resistivity of the encapsulation tissue is sufficient to alter the shape and magnitude of the electric field generated by chronically implanted electrodes.
Journal ArticleDOI
Visual sensations produced by optic nerve stimulation using an implanted self-sizing spiral cuff electrode.
Claude Veraart,Christian Raftopoulos,J.T. Mortimer,Jean Delbeke,Delphine Pins,Ginette Michaux,Annick Vanlierde,S. Parrini,Mc. Wanetdefalque +8 more
TL;DR: The results demonstrate the potential for constructing a visual prosthesis, based on electrical stimulation of the optic nerve, for blind subjects who have intact retinal ganglion cells.
Journal ArticleDOI
Stimulus waveforms for selective neural stimulation
Warren M. Grill,J.T. Mortimer +1 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors review recent efforts to design stimulus waveforms for selective electrical stimulation of the nervous system and present the fundamental principles governing the response of excitable nerve fibers to imposed stimuli are reviewed and used to design waveforms.
