OBJECTIVE: To demonstrate the feasibility of using a computerized system to detect the onset of a seizure and, in response, initiate Vagus nerve stimulation (VNS) in patients with medically refractory epilepsy. METHODS: We designed and built a ... Read more...
Seizure abatement with single dc pulses: is phase resetting at play?
30 May 2009 Topological approaches for seizure abatement have received scarce attention. The ability to reset the phase of biological oscillations has been widely exploited in cardiology, as evidenced in part by the usefulness of implantable of defibrillators, ... Read more...
Toward a comparison of microelectrodes for acute and chronic recordings.
28 May 2009 Several variations of microelectrode arrays are used to record and stimulate intracortical neuronal activity. Bypassing the immune response to maintain a stable recording interface remains a challenge. Companies and researchers are continuously ... Read more...
