Comparisons of unilateral and bilateral cochlear implantation for children: spatial listening skills and quality of life [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
Recently, controversy in the care of severely-profoundly deaf children has centred on whether they should be provided with bilateral cochlear implants (two implants, one in each ear) rather than a unilateral cochlear implant (one implant in one ear ...

Toward Simultaneous Neurostimulation and Prosthetic Control: Real-Time Filtering of Amplitude-Modulated Stimulation Artifacts From Implanted Electrode Signals

open access: yesIEEE Transactions on Neural Systems and Rehabilitation Engineering
Restoring tactile feedback via nerve stimulation is essential for intuitive prosthetic control, yet the electrical artifacts introduced by stimulation pulses—especially with modulating amplitudes—can severely distort electromyographic (EMG)

Fundamental study on evaluation of the condition of percutaneously implanted electrodes with measuring electrical impedance [PDF]

open access: yes, 1998
Restoration of motor functions of paralyzed patients by means of Functional Electrical Stimulation (FES) is effective as a medical treatment. In the clinical application of FES, the traditional evaluation of the electrode failure is difficult and often ...

System and method for choosing electrodes in an implanted stimulator device [PDF]

open access: yes, 2005
A method of selecting of subset of electrodes in a stimulator device implanted in a patient for further clinical evaluation is disclosed. In one embodiment, the method comprises measuring at least first and second measurement for each of the plurality of

Neuropathology of chronically implanted, intracortical electrodes in a tetraplegic patient with robotic arm interface

open access: yes, 2019
Objective: Literature documenting histopathology of implanted, intracortical electrodes into the human brain is limited. Therefore, we determined the neuropathological changes after chronic intracortical placement of microelectrode arrays within the ...
