Brain-Controlled implant lets paralyzed patients move again

NCT ID NCT02329652

Summary

This study is testing a fully implanted device called a neuroprosthetic system to help people with mid-level neck spinal cord injuries regain movement and function. The device aims to restore control over hand grasp, arm reach, trunk stability, coughing, and bladder function. Researchers will implant the system in 30 eligible participants to see if it improves their ability to perform daily activities and increases independence.
