Neurophysiology Studies Electrical Stimulation For Vestibular Nerve

本项目将提供前庭神经功能丧失后电刺激方法的研究和发展。本研究的目的是开发电刺激前庭神经的方法，该方法可以在导致头晕的不规则活动的短暂发作期间为患者提供益处和/或作为平衡假体的组成部分。该合同针对动物研究，与不久的将来在人类患者中的临床应用密切相关。

This project will provide research and development of methods for electrically stimulating the vestibular nerve following loss of function from the vestibular end organs. The objective of this research is to develop methods of electrically stimulating the vestibular nerve, which can provide patient benefit during transient attacks of irregular activity leading to dizziness and/or act as a component of a balance prosthesis. This contract is directed towards animal studies with close ties to clinical applications in human patients in the near future.
