The Effect of Ultrasound on Acceleration of Peripheral Nerve Injury
Background: Many people suffer from nerve injury. The time consuming nature of the treatments makes the condition worse. Therefore, finding a way to accelerate the process of nerve repair is very important.Objective: To determine the effect of ultrasound on the acceleration of crushed peripheral nerve regeneration.Methods: The experimental model included crushed rat’s sciatic nerve. 40 rats w...
متن کاملRepetitive nerve stimulation for the evaluation of peripheral nerve hyperexcitability.
OBJECTIVE To examine the utility of repetitive nerve stimulation (RNS) in the evaluation of peripheral nerve hyperexcitability (PNH). BACKGROUND PNH describes a group of disorders characterized by muscle cramps, twitching and stiffness. When severe, PNH may be characterized by the presence of continuous muscle fiber activity on routine needle electromyography (EMG). In milder forms of the dis...
متن کاملDefinition of Peripheral Nerve Stimulation
that is rapidly gaining popularity for a variety of clinical conditions. Despite its straightforward nature, the modality has been for a long time treated as a ‘stepchild’ of the neuromodulation field, yielding the spotlight to the more ubiquitous spinal cord stimulation (SCS) and the more elegant deep brain stimulation (DBS) approaches. Interestingly enough, the main theoretical explanation of...
متن کاملPeripheral nerve magnetic stimulation: influence of tissue non-homogeneity
BACKGROUND Peripheral nerves are situated in a highly non-homogeneous environment, including muscles, bones, blood vessels, etc. Time-varying magnetic field stimulation of the median and ulnar nerves in the carpal region is studied, with special consideration of the influence of non-homogeneities. METHODS A detailed three-dimensional finite element model (FEM) of the anatomy of the wrist regi...
متن کاملMagnetic Nerve Stimulation
Magnetic nerve stimulation is a noninvasive, noncontact means of exciting nerves. Magnetic stimulators generate eddy currents in tissue by producing a high-amplitude, short-duration magnetic pulse from a small coil located near the tissue. A simple circuit can generate the large coil currents necessary for magnetic nerve stimulation. Careful selection of circuit components is necessary to contr...
