escalator style stimuli

English to German Tech/Engineering Electronics / Elect Eng

Figure 1 shows the currents and voltages that
contribute to SCP measurements. These signals include
the stimulus current 102 applied by two stimulus electrodes,
which is a charge-balanced biphasic pulse to provide
low artefact. Alternative embodiments may instead
use three electrodes to apply a tripolar charge balanced
stimulus. In the case of spinal cord stimulation, the stimulus
currents 102 used to provide paraesthesia and pain
relief typically consist of pulses in the range of 3-30 mA
amplitude, with pulse width typically in the range of
100-400 ms, or alternatively may be paraesthesia-free
such as neuro or escalator style stimuli. The stimuli can
comprise monophasic or biphasic pulses.
