Median and radial nerves of individuals with tetraplegia are stimulated via a multipolar cuff electrode to elicit movements of wrist and hand in acute conditions during a surgical intervention. Various configurations corresponding to various combinations of a 12-poles cuff electrode contacts are tested. Video recording and electromyographic (EMG) signals recorded via sterile surface electrodes are used to evaluate the selectivity of each stimulation configuration in terms of activated muscles. In this abstract we introduce the protocol and preliminary results will be presented during the conference.}, number={2}, journal={European Journal of Translational Myology}, author={Tigra, Wafa and Guiraud, David and Andreu, David and Coulet, Bertrand and Gelis, Anthony and Fattal, Charles and Maciejasz, Pawel and Picq, ChloƩ and Rossel, Olivier and Teissier, Jacques and Azevedo Coste, Christine}, year={2016}, month={Jun.} }
