A Stand-Alone Augmented Reality Intervention for Chronic Pain using Embodied Systolic Stimulation
Andrea Serino, Robert Leeb, Oliver Alan Kannape, Skander Mensi, Sylvain Cardin, Fabien Bourban, Alexis Dorier
Chronic pain presents a tremendous personal, societal, and financial burden. Treatment options are often limited to managing symptoms as opposed to treating the causes, and the consequences of pharmacological treatments can be immensely harmful as evidence ...
IEEE2023Neuromodulation/neurostimulation system for mitigating locomotor deficits of parkinson's disease, spinal cord injury (sci), stroke and/or other neurological disorders
Grégoire Courtine, Jocelyne Bloch, Eduardo Martin Moraud, Jordan Squair, Léonie Asboth, Tomislav Milekovic, Robin Jonathan Demesmaeker
The present invention relates to a combined neuromodulation and/or neurostimulation system (10) for mitigating locomotor deficits of/or neuronal disorders, especially Parkinson's disease, said system (10) comprising: - at least one Deep Brain Stimulation ( ...
2023Targeted dorsal root entry zone stimulation alleviates pain due to meralgia paresthetica
Grégoire Courtine, Jocelyne Bloch, Léonie Asboth, Robin Jonathan Demesmaeker, Nicolas Hankov, Jimmy James Ravier, Viviana Aureli, Molywan Vat
Objective. Meralgia paresthetica (MP) is a mononeuropathy of the exclusively sensory lateral femoral cutaneous nerve (LFCN) that is difficult to treat with conservative treatments. Afferents from the LFCN enter the spinal cord through the dorsal root entry ...
IOP Publishing Ltd2022Scrambler Therapy for Chronic Pain after Burns and Its Effect on the Cerebral Pain Network: A Prospective, Double-Blinded, Randomized Controlled Trial
Chronic pain is common after burn injuries, and post-burn neuropathic pain is the most important complication that is difficult to treat. Scrambler therapy (ST) is a non-invasive modality that uses patient-specific electrocutaneous nerve stimulation and is ...
MDPI2022The outcomes of a second and third Gamma Knife radiosurgery for recurrent essential glossopharyngeal neuralgia
Constantin Tuleasca, Anne Donnet
Introduction Gamma Knife radiosurgery (GKR) is a minimally invasive surgical option for drug-resistant essential glossopharyngeal neuralgia (GPN). The authors reviewed pain outcomes and complications in GPN patients who underwent a second or a third GKR fo ...
2020Behavioral and neurophysiological evidence for altered interoceptive bodily processing in chronic pain
Olaf Blanke, Fosco Bernasconi, Hyeongdong Park, Marco Solcà
Whereas impaired multisensory processing of bodily stimuli and distorted body representation are well-established in various chronic pain disorders, such research has focused on exteroceptive bodily cues and neglected bodily signals from the inside of the ...
2020Lumbar and thoracic kinematics during step-up: Comparison of three-dimensional angles between patients with chronic low back pain and asymptomatic individuals
Julien Favre, Guillaume Christe
While alterations in spinal kinematics have been repeatedly observed in patients with chronic low back pain (CLBP), their exact nature is still unknown. Specifically, there is a need for comprehensive assessments of multisegment spinal angles during daily- ...
2020Cognitive neuroprosthetics for investigating and restoring body perception
Our brain constantly receives and integrates a flow of multisensory bodily inputs that are responsible for the way our body is represented and consciously experienced. However, in some pathological conditions, patients might experience altered perceptions ...
EPFL2019Soft multimodal neural interfaces for unravelling sensory neurological circuits
Frédéric Pierre Gérald Michoud
Diseases or injuries affecting the nervous system can dramatically disrupt the quality of life. Despite extensive efforts towards treating dysfunctional nervous systems, the pharmacological and electrical approaches generally involved lack the temporal and ...
EPFL2019Spatiotemporal stimulation strategies in neuroprostheses to improve locomotion after spinal cord injury
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 ...
