20150151107 | MEDICAL MICROELECTRODE, METHOD FOR ITS MANUFACTURE, AND USE THEREOF - A proto microelectrode from which a micro electrode is formed in situ upon insertion into soft tissue comprises a flexible oblong electrode body of electrically conducting material having a front end and a rear end. The electrode body having a metal or a metal alloy or an electrically conducting form of carbon or an electrically conducting polymer or a combination thereof. A first coat of a water soluble and/or swellable and/or degradable material is disposed on the electrode body and extends along is at least over a distal portion thereof. A second coat of electrically insulating, water insoluble flexible polymer material is disposed on the first coat. The second coat comprises one or more through openings at or near its front end. Also disclosed is a corresponding micro electrode and a method of manufacture. | 06-04-2015 |
20140323948 | MICROELECTRODE AND MULTIPLE MICROELECTRODES - A medical microelectrode includes an elongate electrode body including a tip section, a main body section and, optionally, a coupling section. The tip section, the main body section and, optionally, the coupling section are embedded in a first electrode matrix element, which is substantially rigid, biocompatible and soluble or biodegradable in a body fluid. Additionally the microelectrode includes a dissolution retarding layer on the first electrode matrix element and/or a second electrode matrix element disposed between the first electrode matrix element and the electrode. Upon dissolution or biodegradation of the first electrode matrix element a drug comprised by the first electrode matrix element or the second electrode matrix element is released into the tissue. Also disclosed are bundles and arrays of the electrodes and their use. | 10-30-2014 |
20130190851 | DISPLACEMENT RESISTANT MICROELECTRODE, MICROELECTRODE BUNDLE AND MICROELECTRODE ARRAY - A medical microelectrode has a front end, a rear end and a density at 20° C. of from 0.80 to 1.15. The electrode comprises any of: electrically conductive tubiform lead comprising a metal and/or an electrically conductive polymer, the lead having an outer surface and a sealed lumen; electrically conductive wire lead comprising a metal and/or an electrically conductive polymer, the lead having a surface and a buoyant element of a density of less than 1.0 attached to the surface. | 07-25-2013 |
20090020131 | METHOD AND SYSTEM FOR COMPENSATING A SELF-CAUSED DISPLACEMENT OF TISSUE - A system for compensating a neurally triggered or other self-caused displacement of a tissue of an animal including man comprises a base provided with a means for immobilizing the animal or body part thereof comprising the tissue, one or more displacement means in contact with the base, a means for sampling position data from a marker disposed in or in the proximity of the tissue, a means for sampling source activity data from one or more sources of displacement, microprocessor means for correlating position data and source activity data to generate a predictive correspondence, a means for controlling the one or more displacement means by source activity data based on the predictive correspondence. Also disclosed is a corresponding method and use. | 01-22-2009 |
