NCT ID NCT07477613

First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026

Summary

This study tests a wireless brain-computer interface implanted in the skull to help people who had a stroke regain arm movement. Ten participants will undergo intensive rehabilitation with and without the device. The main goal is to check safety, but researchers will also measure improvements in motor function.

Active substance

WIMAGINE implantable brain-computer interface device

What this could lead to

If successful, this could offer a new way for stroke survivors to regain arm function through brain-controlled rehabilitation.

What could go wrong

This is a very early safety trial with only 10 participants, so results may not apply widely. The implant surgery carries risks like infection or device failure.
