A Review of Microelectronic Systems and Circuit Techniques for Electrical Neural Recording Aimed at Closed-Loop Epilepsy Control

Alexandre Schmid, Reza Ranjandish

Closed-loop implantable electronics offer a new trend in therapeutic systems aimed at controlling some neurological diseases such as epilepsy. Seizures are detected and electrical stimulation applied to the brain or groups of nerves. To this aim, the signa ...

Directional Local Field Potentials in the Subthalamic Nucleus During Deep Brain Implantation of Parkinson's Disease Patients

André Mercanzini, Thuy Anh Khoa Nguyen

Segmented deep brain stimulation leads feature directional electrodes that allow for a finer spatial control of electrical stimulation compared to traditional ring-shaped electrodes. These segmented leads have demonstrated enlarged therapeutic windows and ...

Ultrasound Stimulations Induce Prolonged Depolarization and Fast Action Potentials in Leech Neurons

Théo Lemaire, Silvestro Micera

Objective: Ultrasound (US) stimulation carries the promise of a selective, reversible, and non-invasive modulation of neural activity without the need for genetic manipulation of neural structures. However, the mechanisms of US-induced generation of action ...

A design methodology for charge-balanced stimulators based on anodic current variation monitoring

Alexandre Schmid, Reza Ranjandish

Charge balancing is a major safety concern in neural and functional electrical stimulation. This paper presents a novel and safe active charge balancing design methodology in which, after each cathodic and anodic stimulation pulse, the value of the remaini ...

Non-invasive, Brain-controlled Functional Electrical Stimulation for Locomotion Rehabilitation in Individuals with Paraplegia

Mohamed Bouri, Solaiman Shokur, Miguel Nicolelis

Spinal cord injury (SCI) impairs the flow of sensory and motor signals between the brain and the areas of the body located below the lesion level. Here, we describe a neurorehabilitation setup combining several approaches that were shown to have a positive ...

Automatic clustering of spinal reflexes evoked by epidural electrical stimulation of the cervical spinal cord in non-human primates

Giuseppe Schiavone, Stéphanie Lacour, Grégoire Courtine, Marco Capogrosso, Sara Conti, Beatrice Barra, Katie Zhi Zhuang, Jocelyne Bloch

Epidural electrical stimulation of the spinal cord elicits motor responses by recruiting large sensory afferents in the posterior roots. Divergence of excitatory inputs provided by these fibers generates a variety of shapes, latencies and amplitudes in the ...

Spatiotemporal stimulation strategies in neuroprostheses to improve locomotion after spinal cord injury

Jérôme Gandar

Spinal cord injury (SCI) disrupts communication within central nervous system and lead to range of neurological disorders including paralysis. Current rehabilitation strategies to restore locomotion are poorly effective in people with severe SCI. Epidural ...

Chopped-Anodic-Phase Charge Balancing Method for Electrical Stimulation

Alexandre Schmid, Reza Ranjandish

Providing safety of stimulation is a critical requirement in the design of biomedical electrical stimulators. Charge balancing circuits are required to guarantee safety of electrical stimulators. Chopped-anodic-phase (CAP) is one of the methods used for ch ...

Brain-spine interface technologies to alleviate gait deficits after Parkinson's disease

Flavio Raschella

Gait and balance deficits are motor disabilities that typically develop late in the progression of Parkinson's disease (PD). These deficits are thought to be the result of dysregulated neural activity in the cortico-basal ganglia-thalamic-cortical motor lo ...

Analysis of patient-specific stimulation with segmented leads in the subthalamic nucleus

Philippe Renaud, André Mercanzini, Thuy Anh Khoa Nguyen

Objective Segmented deep brain stimulation leads in the subthalamic nucleus have shown to increase therapeutic window using directional stimulation. However, it is not fully understood how these segmented leads with reduced electrode size modify the volume ...

Spatio-temporal structure of single neuron subthalamic activity identifies DBS target for anesthetized Tourette syndrome patients

Silvestro Micera, Matteo Vissani

Objective. Deep brain stimulation (DBS) of basal ganglia effectively tackles motor symptoms of movement disorders such as Tourette syndrome (TS). The precise location of target stimulation site determines the range of clinical outcome in DBS patients, and ...
