From: Selective stimulation of the ferret abdominal vagus nerve with multi-contact nerve cuff electrodes

Nodose compound action potentials. (a) 120 repetitions of a single stimulus pulse were delivered at 2 Hz and a stimulus-triggered average was calculated to reduce noise amplitude and improve signal-to-noise ratio. (b) A sliding 1 ms RMS window smoothed the averaged signal to further reduce noise. Detection threshold (red line) was set to 2.4–2.6 times the standard deviation of the smoothed, averaged signal.
