Exercise 1: The effects of nerve stimulation A. Describe briefly what you have done for this section (maximum 100 words). Basically I am the volunteer. Two students handle the system while one student helps to spread the adequate electrode cream on the volunteer’s left wrist. The system is set to continuous‚ frequency is 1Hz‚ pulse duration at 200μs and pulse current at 10mA. The stimulator is switched off to disconnect the isolated stimulator terminals. The stimulus is then switched on and

Question 3 Using any peripheral nerve bundle as a model‚ describe using figures (a) the general anatomical structure with key constituents identified and (b) the heterogeneity in the electrical conductivities of the different constituents. For this question‚ I will be using the sciatic nerve as my model. The sciatic nerve consists of several main structures as can be seen in Figures 5 below. Figure 5: Cross section of the sciatic nerve. The inset in the top image shows individual fibers wrapped

Engineering Department Cleveland State University ESC 282 Spring Semester‚ 2012 Project #2502705 Introduction I am tired of paying too much for the electricity and it has to stop! Being an engineer‚ I’ve decided to consider alternative ways of generating clean energy at home. It even gets better‚ if I buy the Nissan LEAF‚ which is an all-electric car‚ I will not have to pay for gas any more. My car will be charged up by the electricity I generate at home. In this report‚ I will do research and

spending its cash. Cash-Generating Efficiency Managers accustomed to evaluating income statements usually focus on the bottom-line result. While the level of cash at the bottom of the statement of cash flows is certainly an important consideration‚ such information can be obtained from the balance sheet. The focal point of cash flow analysis is on cash inflows and outflows from operating activities. These cash flows are further used in ratios that measure cash-generating efficiency‚ which is a company’s

Is the Reid technique capable of generating false confessions‚ and if so are the safeguards sufficient to insure that these false confessions will not be used against innocent subjects? I will have to say as in life‚ nothing is perfect. Yes‚ the Reid technique is capable of generating false confessions. If certain elements are present then there are circumstances during the interrogation that will produce a false confession. Some of these (obvious) elements are improperly and mishandling of the

Optic nerve sheath diameter (ONSD) The anatomy of the optic nerve sheath : The intraorbital section of the optic nerve extends from the globe‚ where it inserts medially‚ to the optic canal located in the lesser wing of the sphenoid bone. It is encased by a meningeal sheath consisting of dura mater‚ arachnoid mater and pia mater. Cerebrospinal fluid is contained in the trabeculated subarachnoid space and is continuously and slowly filtered. As a result the optic nerve sheath is in direct
