Abstract

A nerve stimulation model has been developed, incorporating realistic cross-sectional nerve geometries and conductivities. The potential field in the volume conductor was calculated numerically using the variational method. Nerve fiber excitation was described by the model of McNeal. Cross-sectional geometries of small monofascicular rat common peroneal nerve and multifascicular human deep peroneal nerve were taken as sample geometries. Selective stimulation of a fascicle was theoretically analyzed for several electrode positions: outside the nerve, in the connective tissue of the nerve, and inside a fascicle. The model results predict that the use of intraneural or even intrafascicular electrodes is necessary for selective stimulation of fascicles not lying at the surface of the nerve. Model predictions corresponded with experimental results of Veltink et al. on intrafascicular and extraneural stimulation of rat common peroneal nerve and to results of McNeal and Bowman on muscle selective stimulation in multifascicular dog sciatic nerve using an extraneural multielectrode configuration.

Each is checked against this paper’s own text: does it say what the citing paper says it does?

  • In a nerve with multiple fascicles, groups of motor neurons are scattered among fascicles, and because fascicles have different locations, selective stimulation may be achieved by electrodes in their neighborhood.

    “In a nerve with multiple fascicles, groups of motor neurons are scattered among fascicles. These fascicles have different locations in the nerve, therefore their selective stimulation may be achieved by electrodes in their neighborhood [78].”

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
