  1. 6. HIGH-FREQUENCY OSCILLATIONS IN A MOUSE MODEL OF PARKINSON’S DISEASE

    University essay from Umeå universitet/Institutionen för psykologi

    Author : Love Zachrisson; [2020]
    Keywords : 6-OHDA; Parkinson s Disease; Basal Ganglia; LID; Gamma oscillation; 80Hz; HFO; Multichannel electrode array; Parkinsons sjukdom; 6-OHDA; LID; HFO; Gamma oscillering; 80Hz; Basala Ganglierna; Elektrodimplantat;

    Abstract : Dopamine replacement therapy is the main method of treating Parkinson’s Disease (PD), however over time this treatment causes increasingly abnormal, involuntary movements. This symptom, known as Levodopa-Induced-Dyskinesia (LID) is associated with aberrant, high frequency oscillations (HFOs) in the motor cortex and basal ganglia, as demonstrated with implanted electrodes in human Parkinson’s patients as well as in a rat model of Parkinson’s Disease.

  3. 7. Endeavors toward Novel Cochlear Implants from Stretchable Printed Circuit Board Technology

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Mikrosystemteknik

    Author : Rickard Viik; [2019]
    Keywords : novel; cochlear; implant; electrode array; electrode; stretchable; soft; electronics; pdms; polydimethylsiloxane; liquid; alloy; galinstan; hearing aid;

    Abstract : Profound sensorineural hearing loss is at the present time a major worldwide health concern, affecting over 5% of the worlds' population. Through cochlear implants (CI), treatment of sensorineural hearing loss now offers the possibility to restore hearing function through electrical stimulation of auditory nerves. READ MORE

  4. 8. Motor unit localization using high-density surface EMG

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Avdelningen för Biomedicinsk teknik

    Author : Jonathan Hermansson Lundsberg; [2019]
    Keywords : Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : Localization of muscle motor units (MU) using surface electromyography (sEMG) is of interest in areas including neurology, rehabilitation and prosthetic control. The aim of the thesis is to describe a method for MU localization using high-density sEMG (HDsEMG) and verify the method using simultaneous intramuscular EMG (iEMG) recordings. READ MORE

  5. 9. Impulse response analysis of neuromodulation for the treatment of motor symptoms in Parkinson’s disease

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Institutionen för reglerteknik

    Author : Staffan Hedström; [2016]
    Keywords : Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : In adaptive deep brain stimulation, a treatment for motor symptoms in Parkinson’s disease, the target of the stimulus is usually in the sub-thalamic nucleus or the globus pallidus. In this thesis, a new stimulus target called reticular thalamus is investigated in a rat model of Parkinson’s disease. READ MORE

  6. 10. Prosthetic Control using Implanted Electrode Signals

    University essay from KTH/Skolan för teknik och hälsa (STH)

    Author : Stefanía Hákonardóttir; [2014]
    Keywords : Myoelectric Control; Prosthesis; Lower Limb Prosthesis; Event Detection; Gait Cycle; PCB Layout; Electrical Design;

    Abstract : This report presents the design and manufacturing process of a bionic signal messagebroker (BSMB), intended to allow communication between implanted electrodes andprosthetic legs designed by Ossur. The BSMB processes and analyses the data intorelevant information to control the bionic device. READ MORE
