Summary

This study tests whether a brain-computer interface (a device implanted in the brain) can help people with tetraplegia (paralysis of all four limbs) control a robotic hand to grasp objects. Ten participants will receive the implant and undergo rehabilitation over 9 months. The goal is to improve motor function, but the device is temporary and requires ongoing management.
