The data analyzed included all 82 trials. Out of the 79 successful trials, there were 35 where the monkey had to move the cursor to the upper-right target, and 44 where the monkey had to move the cursor to the upper-left target. The data analyzed lasted from the start of each trial to the end of movement of that trial; thus, all inter-trial periods were ignored. Planning of sequential arm movem...

Optimal management of patients with implantable cardiac devices has become crucial, in the rapidly evolving field of cardiac electrophysiology. A clear understanding of device algorithms and growing programming options is essential to decipher many complex device behaviours. As any other areas in cardiac electrophysiology, working through unknown tracings as examples is the best way to familiar...

We report a method to facilitate single cell, image-guided experiments including in vivo electrophysiology and electroporation. Our method combines 3D image data acquisition, visualization and on-line image analysis with precise control of physical probes such as electrophysiology microelectrodes in brain tissue in vivo. Adaptive pipette positioning provides a platform for future advances in au...

OBJECTIVES The purpose of this study was to evaluate a new technique for sterilizing nonlumen electrophysiology catheters that uses hydrogen peroxide gas plasma. BACKGROUND The reuse of electrophysiology catheters may potentially result in a significant cost savings. While ethylene oxide sterilization appears to be safe and effective from a clinical standpoint, toxic ethylene oxide residuals,...

Lujan HL, DiCarlo SE. Cardiac electrophysiology and the susceptibility to sustained ventricular tachycardia in intact, conscious mice. Am J Physiol Heart Circ Physiol 306: H1213–H1221, 2014. First published February 21, 2014; doi:10.1152/ajpheart.00780.2013.—Cardiac electrophysiological dysfunction is a major cause of death in humans. Accordingly, electrophysiological testing is routinely perfo...

Autoclaving, the most widely available sterilization method, is applied to poly(3,4-ethylenedioxythiophene) doped with polystyrene sulfonate (PEDOT:PSS) electrophysiology devices. The process does not harm morphology or electrical properties, while it effectively kills E. coli intentionally cultured on the devices. This finding paves the way to widespread introduction of PEDOT:PSS electrophysio...
