Abstract While peripheral nerve stimulation (PNS) has shown promise in applications ranging from peripheral nerve regeneration after injury to therapeutic organ stimulation, clinical implementation has been impeded by various technological limitations, including surgical placement, lead migration, and atraumatic removal. Here, we describe the design and validation of a new platform for nerve regeneration and interfacing: Absorbable, Conductive, Electrotherapeutic Scaffolds (ACES). ACES are comprised of an alginate/poly-acrylamide interpenetrating network hydrogel optimized for both open and minimally invasive percutaneous approaches. In a rodent model of sciatic nerve repair, ACES significantly improved motor and sensory recovery ( p < 0.05), increased muscle mass ( p < 0.05), and increased axonogenesis ( p < 0.05). Triggered dissolution of ACES enabled atraumatic, percutaneous removal of leads at forces significantly lower than controls ( p < 0.05). In a porcine model, ultrasound-guided percutaneous placement of leads with an injectable ACES near the femoral and cervical vagus nerves facilitated stimulus conduction at significantly greater lengths than saline controls ( p < 0.05). Overall, ACES facilitated lead placement, stabilization, stimulation and atraumatic removal enabling therapeutic PNS as demonstrated in small and large animal models.
