title: A simple electromagnetic mechanical stimulator for electrophysiological recording in man.
abstract: In order to study peripheral nervous signals in response to a noxious or innocuous mechanical cutaneous stimulus we deviced an electromechanical stimulator of which stimulus duration, response frequency and delay are perfectly controlled. Using this device, stimulation of the finger has allowed us to record electrophysiological responses over the course of the median nerve.
