Implementations of clinically used cuff electrodes

LivaNova helical cuff electrode

We implemented the LivaNova helical cuff electrodes used clinically to treat patients with epilepsy and they are included in ‘config/system/cuffs/’. Each cuff includes a description of it’s unique elements in the "description" field:

  • LivaNova2000_v2.json

  • LivaNova2000_v2.json

  • LivaNova2000_v2_common_fill.json

  • LivaNova3000_v2_common_fill.json

  • LivaNovaAdaptiveDiam_v2_acute.json

  • LivaNovaAdaptiveDiam_v2_chronic.json

The dimensions used for the LivaNova helical cuffs are based on CAD files and technical drawings shared with the Grill Lab by LivaNova PLC as part of a contractual research agreement. The files themselves are proprietary and cannot be shared.

Modeling work which used the above cuff JSON files is published in (Davis et al., 2023, Musselman et al., 2023). Each paper has associated datasets published on sparc.science and the datasets are cited in the data availability statement of each paper.

ImThera six-contact cuff electrode

We implemented the ImThera six-contact cuff electrode used clinically to treat sleep apnea and it is included in config/system/cuffs/:

  • ImThera_flip_100.json

The dimensions used for the ImThera cuff are based on technical drawings shared with the Grill Lab by LivaNova PLC as part of a contractual research agreement. The files themselves are proprietary and cannot be shared.

Modeling work which used the ImThera_flip_100.json file is published in (Blanz et al., 2023).
