Current techniques in peripheral nerve repair include the use of autografts and nerve conduits to bridge the nerve gap. Bioengineers have developed a variety of nerve conduits to improve nerve regeneration, as well as employed functionalized bioactive additives to the nerve conduits. Within such a discipline, adequate evaluation methods are extremely important for correctly assessing nerve repair and regeneration. There are histological, electrophysiological or functional analyses. This article reviews the research efforts that integrate bioengineering approaches.[SDGs]SDG3Electrophysiological measurement; Evaluation Method; Functional recovery; Functionalized; Health concerns; Nerve conduits; Nerve regeneration; Nerve repair; Peripheral nerve repair; Peripheral nerves; Research efforts; Trauma patients; Electrophysiology; biomaterial; collagen; copolymer; fibronectin; glycosaminoglycan; laminin; politef; polyester; silicone; autograft; bioengineering; electrophysiology; extracellular matrix; gait; human; nerve graft; nerve regeneration; neurography; nonhuman; peripheral nerve; peripheral nerve injury; review; sciatic nervejournal article10.5405/jmbe.9022-s2.0-79960622699https://www2.scopus.com/inward/record.uri?eid=2-s2.0-79960622699&doi=10.5405%2fjmbe.902&partnerID=40&md5=33d60def51ac5737ac2cedba82809b19
