Magnets in muscles could give amputees more natural control of robotic legs
NCT ID NCT07195461
Summary
This early study is testing a new system that uses tiny implanted magnetic beads to help people with below-knee amputations control a robotic prosthetic leg. The beads track muscle movement in the remaining limb, sending signals to the prosthesis to make it move more intuitively. The study will enroll up to 5 people to check if this approach is safe and if it helps people walk better compared to a standard robotic leg.
