Scientists test 'Neural Interface' to give amputees feeling in robotic hands

NCT ID NCT05505513

Summary

This early study is testing whether tiny electrode arrays implanted in the nerves of the arm can help people with amputations control a prosthetic hand more naturally. The goal is to record signals from the brain to move the hand and also send artificial touch and position sensations back to the user. The study will enroll 3 adults with below-elbow arm amputations to test the safety and basic function of this system.
