Abstract:
:The effects of several hours of continuous electrical stimulation in the cats' cochlear nucleus with chronically implanted activated iridium microelectrodes was investigated from the changes in the evoked response near the inferior colliculus and also by histologic evaluation of the stimulated tissue. The stimulating microelectrodes had geometric surface areas of 75-500 microns2. They were pulsed continuously for 4 h, at a pulse repetition rate of 200 Hz, using charge-balanced pulse pairs. The charge per phase was 1.8 or 3.6 nC/ph. The animals were sacrificed for histologic evaluation 2 h, or several days later. The only remarkable histologic change resulting from the 4 h of stimulation was some aggregation of lymphocytes at the site of stimulation. However, depression of the electrical excitability of neurons near the sites often persisted for several days after 4 h of stimulation at 3.6 nC/phase. The charge per phase of the stimulus pulse pair was correlated strongly with the depression of excitability, and there was a weaker correlation between the depression and the amplitude of the first phase of voltage transient induced across the electrode-tissue interface. The charge density, calculated from the geometric surface area of the stimulating electrodes, was poorly correlated with the severity of the depression. The findings suggest a means of detecting impending stimulation-induced neural damage while it is still reversible.
