Laparoscopic diaphragm pacing for tetraplegia.

(2) This device stimulates the diaphragm muscle, rather than the phrenic nerve, and is intended to lead to less risk of nerve damage than other therapies.(3) This technology provides an alternative to mechanical ventilation, and allows patients to increase day-to-day freedom and minimize the risk of respiratory infection.
