Laryngeal elevation by selective stimulation of the hypoglossal nerve

Journal of Neural Engineering, 2013
Laryngeal elevation protects the airway and assists opening of the esophagus during swallowing. The GH, thyrohyoid, and MH muscles provide a majority of this elevatory motion. This study applied functional electrical stimulation to the XII/C1 nerve complex using a nerve cuff electrode to determine the capabilities of neural stimulation to induce ...

Effect of lingual nerve stimulation on hypoglossal motoneurons

Experimental Neurology, 1968
Abstract The effect of lingual nerve stimulation upon excitability of hypoglossal motoneurons was studied in decerebrate and decerebellate cats by means of extracellular and intracellular recording. Motoneurons in the hypoglossal nucleus can be divided broadly into two major groups: one innervating the tongue protrusive muscles and the other the ...

Hypoglossal nerve stimulation with Inspire: An operative technique

Auris Nasus Larynx
Obstructive sleep apnea is a chronic medical condition with a significant prevalence in Japan, estimated to be up to 22.3 % of the male working age population with moderate to severe OSA. Hypoglossal nerve stimulation (HNS) is now an established surgical treatment for obstructive sleep apnea.

Use of an intra-operative nerve stimulator in identifying the hypoglossal nerve

The Journal of Laryngology & Otology, 2005
Previously, the hypoglossal nerve has not undergone intra-operative monitoring during neck operations in which the nerve is at risk. As society becomes increasingly litigious, this may change. This study describes the technique and the microvoltages used in 10 patients for intra-operative stimulation of the hypoglossal nerve with the Magstim nerve ...

Magnetic brainstem stimulation of the hypoglossal nerve in normal subjects

European Journal of Neurology, 2006
Electrophysiological evaluation of motor pathways to the lingual muscles is technically challenging. Previous studies utilizing transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) of the parieto‐occipital region with a round coil reported difficulties in eliciting tongue motor responses.
