Abstract

Depolarising prepulses and exponentially rising pulses are techniques for selective fiber activation, which up to now have been demonstrated only in simulation studies. This experimental study shows selective fiber activation in a mixed nerve bundle using these two novel techniques and compare them with anodal block. Experiments were performed in vitro on the vagal nerves of pigs.
