Selectivity of the TIME Implantable Nerve Electrode
Abstract: The selection of a suitable nerve electrode has to consider a balance between invasiveness and selectivity, with the ultimate goal of achieving the highest selectivity for a high number of nerve fascicles by the least invasiveness and potential damage to the nerve. The design of the transversal intrafascicular multichannel electrode aimed to maximize the number of contact sites and their proximity to different populations of nerve fibers, while keeping the risk and invasiveness of the implantation low. The testing in preclinical animal models is obliged before translation into human subjects to avoid any risk, and also to obtain adequate information regarding implantation and performance of the electrode. However, one disadvantage is that it is possible to get a subjective description of the percepts induced by activating the nerve in these models, and thus the selectivity performance of the implanted electrode must be quantified by neurophysiological methods
