    Area of Science:

    • Biomedical Engineering
    • Neurosurgery

    Background:

    • Percutaneous access is crucial for neuroprostheses.
    • Investigating chronic percutaneous fluid or electrical transmission in humans is needed for broader applications.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To explore novel clinical uses for chronic percutaneous access.
    • To establish criteria for developing new percutaneous access devices.

    Main Methods:

    • Review of clinical situations requiring chronic percutaneous access.
    • Evaluation of selection criteria for new device models.
    • Analysis of twenty man-years of clinical experience with the device.

    Main Results:

    • The device allows for chronic percutaneous access for fluid or electrical transmission.
    • Criteria for new models include skull-mounted pedestals, minimal patient risk, common clinical problems, and existing technology.

    Conclusions:

    • The percutaneous device provides successful chronic access when used skillfully.
    • Potential applications include artificial pancreas, artificial heart, and hyperalimentation, with possible modifications for chest-implanted devices.
