The importance of electrode location in cochlear implantation [PDF]

open access: yesLaryngoscope Investigative Otolaryngology, 2016
ObjectivesAs indications for cochlear implantation have expanded to include patients with more residual hearing, increasing emphasis has been placed on minimally traumatic electrode insertion. Histopathologic evaluation remains the gold standard for evaluation of cochlear trauma, but advances in imaging techniques have allowed clinicians to determine ...

Scaling of Electrode-Electrolyte Interface Model Parameters In Phosphate Buffered Saline

open access: yes, 2014
We report how the impedance presented by a platinum electrode scales with the concentration of phosphate buffered saline (PBS). We find that the constant phase element of the model scales with approximately the log of concentration, whereas the ...

Cephalad extraspinal migration of percutaneously implanted spinal cord stimulator electrodes

open access: yesInterdisciplinary Neurosurgery, 2021
Background: Spinal cord stimulation (SCS) is an invasive but beneficial treatment option for patients suffering from chronic pain. Although highly therapeutic, there are some complications that may arise.

A rare case of tined lead migration of InterStim device into the rectum with subsequent novel combined surgical-endoscopic removal technique

open access: yesUrology Research and Practice, 2020
After the introduction of self-anchoring tined leads in 2002, lead migration after sacral neuromodulation (SNM) in the form of InterStimTM (Medtronic, Minneapolis, MN) has been reduced; however, it remains a considerable complication of this otherwise ...

Automatic Extraction of Implanted Electrode Grids [PDF]

open access: yes, 1999
It is common in epilepsy surgery to implant grids and strips of electrodes between the skull and brain or inside the brain, in order to localize functional areas. MR scans are currently used for a variety of image-guided surgical planning tasks, including the localization of the electrode grids.

Cerebral Tissue Response to Electrode Implantation [PDF]

open access: yesCanadian Journal of Neurological Sciences / Journal Canadien des Sciences Neurologiques, 1978
SUMMARY:Tissue response to platinum electrodes was assessed after an eight-day implantation period. The regions of study included the cortical areas at the opercular gyri and at the sulcus parielo-occipitalis externus, as well as the sub-cortical white matter in these areas.Perivascular and intraparenchymal hemorrhagic lesions as well as edematous ...

Minimal Tissue Reaction after Chronic Subdural Electrode Implantation for Fully Implantable Brain–Machine Interfaces

open access: yesSensors, 2020
There is a growing interest in the use of electrocorticographic (ECoG) signals in brain–machine interfaces (BMIs). However, there is still a lack of studies involving the long-term evaluation of the tissue response related to electrode implantation. Here,

Early Deformation of Deep Brain Stimulation Electrodes Following Surgical Implantation: Intracranial, Brain, and Electrode Mechanics

open access: yesFrontiers in Bioengineering and Biotechnology, 2021
IntroductionAlthough deep brain stimulation is nowadays performed worldwide, the biomechanical aspects of electrode implantation received little attention, mainly as physicians focused on the medical aspects, such as the optimal indication of the ...
