Natural-Based Biomaterials for Peripheral Nerve Injury Repair
Frontiers in Bioengineering and Biotechnology, 2020 Peripheral nerve injury treatment is a relevant problem because of nerve lesion high incidence and because of unsatisfactory regeneration after severe injuries, thus resulting in a reduced patient’s life quality.

A technique for electrically inserting electrode arrays into peripheral nerves [PDF]
, 1994 The authors developed a system based on high-frequency cutting methods to facilitate the insertion of multi-dimensional electrode arrays into peripheral nerves. The system incorporates a feedback loop for controlling arc intensity. This should reduce the
