  1. 1. Peripheral Nervous Network Simulator : A Computer Networks approach

    University essay from Linnéuniversitetet/Institutionen för datavetenskap och medieteknik (DM)

    Author : Baha Eddine Hmidi; [2022]
    Keywords : peripheral nervous system; nerve damage; signal blockage; node; graph; network emulator;

    Abstract : The peripheral nervous system can be seen as a huge network of neurons that prop-agates signals across the human body. In fact, as seen in [1] , "All the information streaming in the peripheral nervous system (PNS) is transmitted along axons byelectro-chemical signals called action potentials". READ MORE

  3. 2. Development of a Closed-loop for Measuring and Stimulating Peripheral Nervous System

    University essay from KTH/Skolan för kemi, bioteknologi och hälsa (CBH)

    Author : Diego Ignacio Roy Hierro; [2022]
    Keywords : Control; Close-loop; PNI; VNS; HRV; Stimulation Protocol; Kontroll; Close-loop; PNI; VNS; HRV; Stimuleringsprotokoll.;

    Abstract : Bioelectronic medicine is an emerging discipline being a intersection of neu- roscience, immunology and electrical engineering. Chronic inflammation is linked to disorders such as diabetes, rheumatoid arthritis, asthma, atheroscle- rosis, obesity and inflammatory bowel disease. READ MORE

  4. 3. Developing a method for insertion of soft neural probes into peripheral nerves

    University essay from Linköpings universitet/Laboratoriet för organisk elektronik; Linköpings universitet/Tekniska fakulteten

    Author : Klara Melander; [2022]
    Keywords : Intraneural stimulation; insertion method; peripheral nerve; nerve phantom; peripheral nerve stimulation; Teknisk biologi; Teknisk biologi;

    Abstract : The main objective of this project was to develop a method for soft neural probe insertion into a nerve. These soft probes are made of a silicon elastomer that is a few orders of magnitude less stiff than the nerve, which makes the insertion process particularly challenging. READ MORE

  5. 4. Evaluation of transcutaneous electrical nerve stimulation parameters for rehabilitation of median and ulnar nerve injury

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Avdelningen för Biomedicinsk teknik

    Author : Lycke Fureby; Frida Lindén; [2022]
    Keywords : Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : The rehabilitation techniques currently available for patients who suffer from injury to the ulnar or median nerve tends to give suboptimal results. Typically, adults who are operated due to a complete transection of the median or ulnar nerve never regain normal sensibility in the injured hand leading to severe limitations in terms of hand function.

  6. 5. 83% Efficient ASIC Wireless Power Transfer from NFC for Implantable Sensors

    University essay from Linköpings universitet/Elektroniska Kretsar och System

    Author : Samir Sabah; [2020]
    Keywords : NFC; Wireless power transfer; Rectifier; Electrical stimulation; Nerve regeneration; Bioelectronics.;

    Abstract : In the past decades, there has been a noticeable growth in the deployment of wireless sensor networks. These sensors/stimulators are typically powered by a battery which has limited life span. Power harvesting is one of the solutions to this problem. READ MORE
