Study Summary

Establishing a sensitive, scalable physiological test for neurovascular reflex integrity and investigating whether targeted peripheral neural stimulation can enhance perfusion and vasodilatory responsiveness.

Primary Outcome

Autonomic reflex testing including thermal axon reflex and pressure induced vasoconstriction will be applied. The cutaneous blood flow in the lower limb will be measured using laser doppler flowmetry. The flux is divided by mean arterial pressure to calculate cutaneous vascular conductance. This provides a physiologically relevant metric of microvascular control by accounting for systemic pressure fluctuations

Interventions

  • DEVICE Chronically Implanted Neural and Muscular Interface
  • DEVICE Peripheral Nerve Stimulation (PNS)
