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.

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,

Epidural Spinal Electrogram Provides Direct Spinal Recordings in Awake Human Participants

open access: yesFrontiers in Human Neuroscience, 2021
Little is known about the electrophysiological activity of the spinal cord during voluntary movement control in humans. We present a novel method for recording electrophysiological activity from the human spinal cord using implanted epidural electrodes ...

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 ...

Chronically Implanted Intracranial Electrodes: Tissue Reaction and Electrical Changes

open access: yesMicromachines, 2018
The brain-electrode interface is arguably one of the most important areas of study in neuroscience today. A stronger foundation in this topic will allow us to probe the architecture of the brain in unprecedented functional detail and augment our ability ...

The Relationship Between Reaction Time of Electrical Stapedius Reflex and Auditory Performance in Cochlear-implanted Children [PDF]

open access: yesIranian Rehabilitation Journal, 2021
Objectives: A common concern in some cochlear-implanted children is the lack of desired progress in auditory and listening skills. Such a concern remains despite proper verbal processor programming, additional disabilities, and continuous participation ...

Feasibility of simultaneous intracranial EEG-fMRI in humans: a safety study [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
In epilepsy patients who have electrodes implanted in their brains as part of their pre-surgical assessment, simultaneous intracranial EEG and fMRI (icEEG-fMRI) may provide important localising information and improve understanding of the underlying ...
