Abstract

The recovery of soleus (SOL), gastrocnemius (GAS), and tibialis anterior (TA) electromyographic activity (EMG) after transection and surgical repair of the sciatic nerve was studied in Sprague-Dawley rats using chronically implanted stimulation and recording electrodes. Spontaneous EMG activity in SOL and GAS and direct muscle (M) responses to posterior tibial nerve stimulation persisted for
