摘要 |
Annular neural electrode for producing, in a given working temperature range, an electricl contact on the periphery of a nerve (10) such as to induce electrical excitation. In accordance with the invention, said electrode is made from a shape memory material capable of showing, in said working temperature range, a super elastic effect in conjunction with its transformation under stress from the austenitic phase to the martensitic phase. Application in electrical muscle stimulation. |
