Design of High Output Impedance, Large Voltage Compliance Output Stage of Implantable Hypoglossal Nerve Stimulator (HGNS) for OSA Treatment
Obstructive Sleep Apnea (OSA) is a potentially common sleep disorder manifested in upper airways’ collapse, either partially or completely. If diagnosed late and untreated, it may result in serious complications. The standard golden method, useful for treating OSA, remains the full night Continuous Positive Airway Pressure (CPAP). Yet, due to the ensuing discomfort it incurs…
Read More Simulation Strategy to Enhance Oxygen Uptake and Reaction Forces at Leg Joints and Vertebral Bodies During Ergometer Exercise Under Altered Gravity
Moderate exercise has been implemented in spaceflight programs to prevent muscle and joint damage under extreme circumstances such as microgravity. Although the physical effects of exercise have been investigated experimentally, advanced modeling and simulation techniques are powerful tools that could provide insight into the physical limitations, optimal conditions, and mechanisms that might lead to muscle…
