  • Abstract
    The commenters, on the basis of the history of cuff electrodes, express the opinion that the use of the cuff electrode for peripheral nerve stimulation described by G.G. Naples et al. (ibid., vol.35, no.11, p.905-16, 1988) has little future. In a reply, the authors of the original paper vigorously dispute this assertion.<>
