    摘要: A method is provided for preventing muscle atrophy, including the steps of identifying a nerve or nerve plexus which controls a targeted muscle or muscle group; implanting a neurostimulator at the nerve or nerve plexus; and transmitting a signal to the neurostimulator to induce activity in the targeted muscle or muscle group. The nerve or nerve plexus can be a pelvic nerve or nerve plexus. The method can be used to prevent atrophy in numerous settings and patients. Further, a tool and method for using the tool are provided which allow for implantation of a neurostimulator in a much easier, faster and safer procedure.

    摘要: A pneumatic multi-valve device includes a housing (21) having a plurality of electromagnetic valve actuators (1), each having coil elements (2) arranged stationary in the housing (21), a core (4) arranged in the housing (21), and armature elements (24). The cores (4) each have a venting bore (5) connected to a venting collection channel (14) on the side of the cores (4) facing away from the connection housing side (23). The venting collection channel is connected to a venting opening (28) of the housing (21), which venting opening is arranged on a housing side different from the housing back side (25). The venting collection channel (14) is formed by a plurality of venting channel elements (13), which are connected to each other.
