A model was designed to evaluate the long-term in vivo electrophysiology of rat peripheral nerve transplants. The application of this model was demonstrated using cyclosporin (CSA) immunosuppression of recipient animals to facilitate peripheral nerve regeneration through nerve allografts. Isogenic Brown Norway (BN) rats [RT1n] were divided into three groups: two received Lewis (LE) rat [RT1l] allografts and one received BN isografts. One allograft recipient group received CSA immunosuppression for the duration of the investigation (150 days). Successful nerve regeneration in the isograft and the immunosuppressed allograft recipient groups was determined by immunohistochemical methods and serial in vivo electrophysiologic techniques to measure nerve conduction velocity and evoked compound muscle action potential amplitude. Statistical analysis of these results indicate that: (a) CSA immunosuppression of peripheral nerve allograft recipients facilitates peripheral nerve regeneration which is indistinguishable from isograft recipient controls at the functioning axon level; and (b) in vivo electrophysiologic monitoring in this model is particularly useful for long term peripheral nerve transplantation studies permitting serial assessment of regeneration with little morbidity.  相似文献

When performing regional anesthesia, a small volume of local anesthetic or normal saline abolishes a motor response induced by a low current (0.5 mA). In this case series we describe the electrophysiological effect of a nonconducting (dextrose 5% in water, D5W) injectate on a motor response elicited by low current electrical stimulation. Twenty-nine peripheral nerve blocks were performed in 20 patients using insulated needles. Each needle was primed with D5W. The needle was advanced towards the target nerve until corresponding motor responses were observed using a current of 0.5 mA or less. Once the needle position was optimally placed, 1 mL of D5W was injected followed by a predetermined dose of local anesthetic. The effects of the injectates (D5W and local anesthetic) on the motor response were observed at all needle insertion sites. In all cases, the motor response was at least maintained or augmented (96%) immediately after the injection of D5W. All motor responses diminished after the injection of local anesthetic (100%). All blocks were considered clinically successful.  相似文献

Nineteen patients with chronic pain due to a traumatic peripheral neuropathy were treated by means of implanted nerve stimulation. In 11 (58%) pain was completely relieved and in four (21%) it was reduced sufficiently to discontinue analgesics. The average follow-up was 11.5 months. The technique is described and the failures discussed. The necessity for implanting the stimulator proximally is emphasised.  相似文献

Chronic somatic peripheral nerve pain was treated prospectively in 24 nonrandomized patients by a program of direct electrical nerve stimulation. Patients qualified for the program if anesthetic (lidocaine) nerve block of the involved cutaneous zone of the peripheral nerve relieved symptoms and transcutaneous electrical nerve stimulation transiently improved and did not exacerbate somatic pain. Results were judged according to a pain score. Patients noted improved sleep and complete absence of the need for narcotic pain medication. On the basis of subjective and objective criteria, 18 patients had good or excellent results and 6 had implant failures. Of the six patients with failures, three failed the trial period and did not have implantation, and three had no significant pain relief and were judged as treatment failures. Three patients had late equipment failure after initial good results. Most patients had some relief of pain, which increased their quality of life and eliminated the need for narcotic analgesia. Direct electrical nerve stimulation should be considered for somatic peripheral nerve pain that has not been ameliorated with other methods. It will reduce, although not necessarily eliminate, pain and pain behavior in most patients.  相似文献

Experiments were performed with a peripheral neurostimulator, used clinically for pain relief, on isolated cat cutaneous peripheral nerve to determine the effect of electrical stimulation on components of the compound action potential. The results show that neurostimulation alters the conduction velocity and the amplitude of both the A-alpha and beta and the A-delta waves with the more slowly-conducting A-delta component showing the greatest changes. This direct alteration of peripheral nerve activity distal to the first synapse in the spinal cord might contribute to the mechanism of pain relief.  相似文献

Summary Transcutaneous electrical stimulation was tested in 24 patients with chronic pain following a peripheral nerve injury in an extremity, in 10 patients with a good effect. All of these 10 patients displayed signs of increased sympathetic activity in addition to hyperalgesia. Sympathetic block gave complete freedom from pain. In 14 patients with the same symptomatology but without an increased or with only very slightly increased sympathetic activity, no or an insignificant effect was obtained. Sympathetic block did not relieve the pain in this group. Transcutaneous electrical stimulation should be tried as an alternative to sympathectomy in causalgia major or minor.  相似文献

PURPOSE: To examine whether the activity of peripheral sympathetic nerves in animals with spinal cord injury can be controlled using therapeutic electrical stimulation. METHODS: The spinal cords of 6 Wistar rats were severed at T12/T13 disk level and were given continuous therapeutic electrical stimulation. Microneurography was used to record sympathetic nerve activity at 24, 48, and 72 hours after severing the spinal cord. RESULTS: Integrated values of muscle sympathetic nerve activity after 72 hours of therapeutic electrical stimulation revealed significantly larger potentials on the stimulated side than the non-stimulated side. Skin sympathetic nerve activity showed no difference between the 2 sides. CONCLUSION: Therapeutic electrical stimulation was found to have a facilitatory effect on the muscle sympathetic nerve activity, whereas regulatory function was activated by the sympathetic nerves.  相似文献

Facial nerve monitoring is an adjunctive method available to a surgeon during parotid surgery to assist with the functional preservation of the facial nerve. This review describes the goals, applications, technique, and benefits of electrophysiologic facial nerve monitoring during parotid surgery. A review and analysis of the relevant medical literature related to electrophysiologic facial nerve monitoring during parotid surgery are included. © 2009 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Hemodynamic changes in the spinal cord and the nerve root caused by electrical sciatic nerve stimulation in anesthetized dogs were measured with a thermal diffusion method. The electrical stimulation increased the blood flow of the stimulated spinal cord and the nerve root. The conditions of stimulation giving the maximum increase of blood flow were different for the spinal cord and the nerve root. Strong stimulation at a high frequency of 50 to 100 Hz was effective for increasing the blood flow. In the spinal cord, an increase of the local metabolic rate appeared to be important for the blood flow increase. In the nerve root, the sympathetic nerves may have an important effect in the blood flow increase.  相似文献
