Abstract

This paper describes the performance of a 16-channel implanted neuroprosthesis for standing and transfers after spinal cord injury including four-contact nerve-cuff electrodes stimulating the femoral nerve for knee extension. Responses of the nerve-cuffs were stable and standing times increased by 600% over time-matched values with a similar eight-channel neuroprosthesis utilizing muscle-based electrodes on vastus lateralis for knee extension.

  • Fisher et al. stimulated the human femoral nerve with 20 Hz for 3 years.

    “Fisher et al. stimulated the human femoral nerve with 20 Hz for 3 years [93].”

    From Safety of long-term electrical peripheral nerve stimulation: review of the state of the art (2019) · cites this paper as [93]

    Methods, section C, reports stimulation of femoral nerve-cuff contacts with a 20 Hz waveform. The paper does not support the claimed three-year duration: Methods, section E, and Results, section C, report standing assessments through 72 weeks after implantation. (LLM, conf=0.90)

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.
