A medical glove for electrical stimulation provides electrodes, supplying low voltage electric current for the purpose of Transcutaneous Electrical Nerve Stimulation (TENS) for patients with chronic pain in their hands, or Electrical Muscle Stimulation (EMS) to assist stroke patients in regaining motor ...
electrical stimulation via the rectum to produce anejaculationof semen; this is commonly used for spinal cord injury or testicular cancer patients who cannot ejaculate and are attemptingartificialinsemination. It may also be used for those with abdominal injuries, multiple sclerosis, diabetic neuropathy,...
Aetna considers electrical stimulation (electrical current via electrodes placed directly on the skin in close proximity to the ulcer) medically necessary durable medical equipment (DME) for any of the following types of chronic ulcers, unless otherwise stated: For management of the following types of...
The member has a skin problem or other medical conditions that precludes the application of conventional electrodes, adhesive tapes, and lead wires; or The member requires electrical stimulation beneath a cast to treat disuse atrophy, where the nerve supply to the muscle is intact. Percutaneous Ele...
An Active Microchannel Neural Interface for Implantable Electrical Stimulation and Recording A mm-sized, implantable neural interface for bidirectional control of the peripheral nerves with microchannel electrodes is presented in this paper. The ap... Maryam Habibollahi,Dai Jiang,Henry Thomas Lancashire,...
P stimulation electrodes arranged in an electrode array extending along a second segment of the lead body proximate to the lead distal end; P lead conductors extending between the P connector elements and the P stimulation electrodes; and a plurality of M tine elements formed in a tine element ...
A combined electrical and chemical stimulation lead is especially adapted for providing treatment to the spine and nervous system. The stimulation lead includes electrodes that may be selectively positioned along various portions of the stimulation lead in order to precisely direct electrical energy to ab...
Various types of electrical stimulation have been examined for soft tissue injuries and wound healing. These include direct electrical stimulation using high voltage pulsed currents or high voltage galvanic currents in which the electrodes are placed directly on the wound site, low voltage pulsed electro...
2). The electrodes coated with crack enzyme were inserted through the shell into the snail’s body. When the snail crawled around, the fuel cell produced electrical power of 7.45 μW by glucose oxidation in the body of snail. The authors also implanted the enzyme bio fuel cell into the ...
Efficacy and safety of an intraoral electrostimulation device for xerostomia relief: a multicenter, randomized trial. Objective To evaluate the efficacy and safety of an intraoral electrostimulation device, consisting of stimulating electrodes, an electronic circuit, and a power source, in treating xeros...
