ENG recordings in response to mechanical stimulation

Electroneurogram signals recorded from 16-channel cuff electrodes placed on the sciatic nerve of Sprague Dawley rats. The recordings were made in response to three types of mechanical stimulation, namely, proprioception, touch and nociception. The data files include synchronisation comments and signals that indicate when a stimulus was applied and what the stimulus was. Proprioceptive responses were recorded in response to a servo motor moving the foot to one of 6 different angles. Touch responses were recorded in response to heel of the foot being touched with one of two Von Frey fibres, corresponding to a force of either 100 or 300 grams. Finally, Nociception responses were recorded in response to the foot being pinched using a pair of forceps either on the heel, or the outer toe.

本数据集收录了Sprague Dawley大鼠坐骨神经上放置的16通道袖状电极所记录的电神经图信号。记录过程旨在响应三种机械刺激，包括本体感觉、触觉和痛觉。数据文件中包含同步注释以及指示刺激应用时间及类型的信号。本体感觉反应通过伺服电机移动脚部至6个不同角度而记录。触觉反应则通过用两种冯·弗里纤维（分别对应100克或300克的力量）触碰脚跟而记录。最后，痛觉反应是通过使用镊子夹住脚跟或外侧趾部而记录。
