The distal end of the device includes a sharpened edge for penetrating through tissue and defines a recess adapted to retain the electrode as the device penetrates into tissue. The electrode is released from the device as it is withdrawn from the tissue. The electrode may be formed of metal having shape memory configured to wrap around a neuromuscular pathway.
