Abstract

A method and apparatus for measuring activity in the peripheral nervous system comprises a nerve cuff (40) having an array (62) of chemical detectors such as chemFETS or ISFETS. Activity within the nerve causes chemical responses which can be detected. The use of chemical rather than electrical detection minimises interference problems and allows the cuffs to be made smaller.
