Nerve stimulator guided pudendal nerve blocks.
We attribute this to the young age of the patient, prompt treatment, and the rapid resolution of symptoms following institution of therapy. It is possible that older infants and adults exhibit more marked elevations in serum CPK due to their relative increased muscle mass. Also noteworthy, was the self-limited fever and tachycardia following her initial anesthetic. Unexplained fever and tachyca...
متن کاملVoiding Dysfunction Associated with Pudendal Nerve Entrapment
Pudendal nerve entrapment (Alcock canal syndrome) is an uncommon source of chronic pelvic pain, in which the pudendal nerve is entrapped or compressed. Pain is located in the perineal, genital and perianal areas and is worsened by sitting. By simple entrapment of the PN without neurogenic damages, pain is usually isolated. In neurogenic damages to the PN, genito-anal numbness, fecal and/or urin...
متن کاملDesign of a Implantable Selective Nerve Stimulator
At University College London implantable stimulators suitable for the selective stimulation of nerve are being developed. We hope these devices will be capable of selectively stimulating either by fibre position, fibre size or to launch action potentials in one direction only, using nerve cuff electrodes. These methods of selective stimulation have been demonstrated by many workers; early paper...
متن کاملBladder inhibition or voiding induced by pudendal nerve stimulation in chronic spinal cord injured cats.
AIMS To investigate pudendal-to-bladder spinal reflexes in chronic spinal cord injured (SCI) cats induced by electrical stimulation of the pudendal nerve. METHODS Bladder inhibition or voiding induced by pudendal nerve stimulation at different frequencies (3 or 20 Hz) was studied in three female, chronic SCI cats under alpha-chloralose anesthesia. RESULTS Voiding induced by a slow infusion ...
متن کاملChronic pudendal neuromodulation using an implantable microstimulator improves voiding function in diabetic rats.
Objective Few studies have investigated the feasibility of using chronic pudendal neuromodulation for improving voiding function in patients with diabetes who are also experiencing urinary retention. The present study investigated the effects of chronic electrical stimulation (ES) of the sensory branch of the pudendal nerve on voiding function in diabetic rats. Approach A custom-made implanta...
