Abstract

Biphasic selective stimulation is an effective electrical stimulation mode for preventing nerve fibers against electrochemical damage, for muscle to contract smoothly, and decreasing muscle's fatigue. By use of computer simulation, this paper presents three biphasic stimulation modes respectively using monopolr, bipolar and tripolar electrodes, which can effectively stimulate nerve fibers in a selective way. The results are helpful to the clinical application of neuroelectrical stimulation.
