Several factors have been identified that link changes in the electrode-tissue interface (ETI) to increased impedance and degraded performance in micro- and macro-electrodes. Previous studies have demonstrated that brief pulses applied every few days can restore SNR to near baseline levels during microelectrode recordings in rodents, a process referred to as electrical rejuvenation. However, electrical rejuvenation has not been tested in clinically relevant macroelectrode designs in large animal models, which could serve as preliminary data for translation of this technique. Here, several variations of this approach were tested to characterize parameters for optimization. <jats:italic>Approach<\/jats:italic>. Alternating-current (AC) and direct-current (DC) electrical rejuvenation methods were explored in three electrode types, chronically implanted in two adult male nonhuman primates (NHP) (<jats:italic>Macaca mulatta<\/jats:italic>), which included epidural electrocorticography (ECoG) electrodes and penetrating deep-brain stimulation (DBS) electrodes. Electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) was performed before and after each rejuvenation paradigm as a gold standard measure of impedance, as well as at subsequent intervals to longitudinally track the evolution of the ETI. Stochastic error modeling was performed to assess the standard deviation of the impedance data, and consistency with the Kramers\u2013Kronig relations was assessed to evaluate the stationarity of EIS measurement. <jats:italic>Main results<\/jats:italic>. AC and DC rejuvenation were found to quickly reduce impedance and minimize the tissue component of the ETI on all three electrode types, with DC and low-frequency AC producing the largest impedance drops and reduction of the tissue component in Nyquist plots. The effects of a single rejuvenation session were found to last from several days to over 1 week, and all rejuvenation pulses induced no observable changes to the animals\u2019 behavior. <jats:italic>Significance<\/jats:italic>. These results demonstrate the effectiveness of electrical rejuvenation for diminishing the impact of chronic ETI changes in NHP with clinically relevant macroelectrode designs.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1088\/1741-2552\/ad5703","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2024,6,11]],"date-time":"2024-06-11T23:00:35Z","timestamp":1718146835000},"page":"036056","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1088\/crossmark-policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":5,"title":["Electrical rejuvenation of chronically implanted macroelectrodes in nonhuman primates"],"prefix":"10.1088","volume":"21","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-1948-6528","authenticated-orcid":true,"given":"K P","family":"O\u2019Sullivan","sequence":"first","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0003-3668-7767","authenticated-orcid":true,"given":"M E","family":"Orazem","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-2317-6194","authenticated-orcid":true,"given":"K J","family":"Otto","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-2319-1263","authenticated-orcid":true,"given":"C R","family":"Butson","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-1779-8237","authenticated-orcid":true,"given":"J L","family":"Baker","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"266","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2024,6,27]]},"reference":[{"key":"jnead5703bib1","first-page":"4149","author":"Agarwal","year":"1995"},{"key":"jnead5703bib2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","first-page":"1917","DOI":"10.1149\/1.2069522","article-title":"Measurement models for electrochemical impedance spectroscopy: I.
