Abstract: The vagus nerve carries sensory information from multiple organs in the body. The recording of
its activity and further processing is a key step for neuromodulation treatments. This paper presents a specific
algorithm for the processing and discrimination of intrafascicular recordings from the vagus nerve using the
novel carbon nanotube yarn electrodes. Up to four different neural waveforms were found, whose occurrence
corresponded to distinct levels of anesthesia depth.
