Intraoperative evaluation of the spiral nerve cuff electrode on the femoral nerve trunkK H Polasek
Department of Biomedical Engineering, Case Western Reserve University, Cleveland OH, USA
J Neural Eng 6:066005. 2009..Small air bubbles were formed in the space over some contacts, preventing stimulation. This occurred in one contact in each electrode, leaving three effective stimulation channels. This issue has been corrected for future studies...
