Abstract: A nerve stimulation system including at least one nerve interface device is disclosed. The device includes a cuff portion having an assembled position in which the cuff portion forms at least part of a passageway for receiving a nerve along a longitudinal axis passing through the passageway; and first and second rings of electrodes mounted on the cuff portion, each ring of electrodes including a plurality of electrodes, and wherein each electrode in the first ring has a corresponding longitudinally-aligned electrode in the second ring so as to form a plurality of pairs of electrodes spaced apart from each other along the longitudinal axis. The system includes a stimulation device in communication with the pairs of electrodes to generate different electrical signals for the pairs of electrodes and a control system that causes the different signals to causes different physiological responses.
