Stroke Statistics

780,000 780,000 people suffer a stroke every year! 87% 87% of strokes are ischemic strokes.

Associated yearly economic burden of $65.6 billion $65.6 billion

Stroke is the leading cause of severe disability leading cause of severe disability in the United States

Implant Trauma and Viability

1.Suggests that the penetrating trauma associated with electrode implantation possibly led to altered primary auditory cortex neuronal firing activity 2.Suggests that the formation of scar tissue around the electrode possibly led to a decrease in electrode viability

slide-54
SLIDE 54

Future Directions

1.Carry out more surgeries to increase sample size and continue recording for broadened temporal “picture” 2.Develop a logarithmic mathematical model of the erosion of electrode viability 3.Employ multi-channel electrodes to generate spatial data 4.Perform studies that will characterize and explain the physiological phenomenon responsible for the findings of the proposed study

slide-55
SLIDE 55

Motor Cortex

  • Regular behavioral training is necessary to accurately

assess motor cortex function after stroke.

  • Trauma associated with electrode implant and recovery

does not affect behavioral performance.

  • Both the cylinder and the pasta manipulation tests show

deficits in forepaw function after stroke in the stroke animal.

  • The changing mean firing rates of neural activity shows

evidence of a stroke and neural recovery.
