A system for hepatic nerve denervation includes a medical device and a generator in communication with the medical device. The medical device includes an elongate body having a proximal portion and a distal portion opposite the proximal portion, and a plurality of treatment electrodes coupled to the distal portion. The distal portion is configured to be in contact with an area of target tissue. The area of target tissue is an area of tissue within the hepatic artery. The generator is configured to generate and deliver at least one pulse train of energy to the plurality of treatment electrodes to ablate the area of target tissue.

A system for determining a treatment regimen for chronic pelvic pain (CPP) includes an electromyography (EMG) probe including electrodes. Each electrode detects pelvic floor muscle activity. An EMG sensor array includes bipolar EMG sensors configured to detect muscle activity of muscles associated with or supporting the pelvic floor muscles. An EMG amplifier is in communication with the EMG probe or the EMG sensor array. The EMG amplifier includes a plurality of input channels. Each input channel receives data of muscle activity in the pelvic floor muscles or the muscles associated with or supporting the pelvic floor muscles from the EMG probe or the EMG sensor array. A processor of a computer performs muscle network analysis using the data of muscle activity in the pelvic floor muscles or the muscles associated with or supporting the pelvic floor muscles. A treatment regimen for CPP is recommended based on the muscle network analysis.

Various embodiments of the present disclosure are directed to electrode arrangements. In one example electrode arrangement, the arrangement includes an electrically conductive electrode, an electrically conductive thermoadhesive, and an electrode carrier. The electrode carrier is provided in the form of a flat material piece consisting of a textile or non-textile material. The electrode carrier is connected on one side to the electrically conductive electrode and the electrically conductive thermoadhesive being in contact with an opposite side of the electrode carrier. The electrode and the thermoadhesive are electrically conductively connected to form an electrical connection

Disclosed is an electronic skin sensor patch which is attached to a skin of a user and measures a bio signal, the electronic skin sensor patch including: a patch body including a frame which is formed with an opening and is made of a mechanical metamaterial; a sensing unit disposed on a first region of the patch body; a sensor system unit disposed on a second region of the patch body and configured to maintain a nonadherent state with the skin; and a wiring disposed along the frame of the patch body and configured to connect the sensing unit and the sensor system unit.

A flexible sheet for neurostimulation has a flexible non-conductive substrate matrix in which electrodes are embedded along a lower surface. Electrically conductive wires extend from the electrodes through the flexible substrate to another exterior surface of the substrate. Methods of making the flexible sheet and making a device using the flexible sheet are also disclosed.

A neuromonitoring needle electrode placement gun which includes a housing, at least a first needle electrode and housing assembly, an elongated channel dimensioned and configured for accommodating axial movement of the at least a first needle electrode and housing assembly within the channel and for directing movement of the at least a first needle electrode and housing assembly and a pusher dimensioned and configured for engaging the at least a first needle electrode and housing assembly and for axially displacing the at least a first needle electrode and housing assembly.

A myoelectric sensor for detecting myoelectric signals which accompany body movement includes: a wearing band that is elastic, expandable, and circular, and that is worn around a limb to surround the limb tightly; myoelectric detection units a plurality of which are disposed in the circumferential direction on the wearing band with intervals therebetween so as to cause each of a plurality of myoelectric detection electrodes to be in close contact with the surface of the limb, and which detect myoelectric signals from corresponding positions on the limb using the myoelectric detection electrodes; and connection cables that electrically connect mutually adjacent myoelectric detection units and thereby transmit the myoelectric signals. The connection cables each include a bent portion, the bent shape of which changes in response to changes in the distance between the mutually adjacent myoelectric detection units.

The present disclosure provides systems, apparatuses, and methods for use of wearable electrode assemblies. The electrode assemblies improve comfort by providing increased overall surface area of their bottom surfaces, which make contact with the patient's scalp and hair. Collapse, compression, or telescoping of the bottom surface will thereby decrease the direct force and/or pressure applied by the distal member or members of the bottom surfaces to the skin. This may be advantageous in patients who have little to no hair in electrode contact areas, patient populations that are particularly skin-sensitive, and/or patients which must wear the electrode assemblies of an extended time period. The electrode assemblies further include structures to dispense and/or maintain conductive gel placed over the patient's skin, thereby maintaining electrical connection quality, and/or to facilitate the clearing of skin and/or hair prior to establishing an electrical connection.
