Summary

This study tested whether a brain-computer interface (BCI) system could help stroke survivors recover arm function. 84 participants with arm weakness after a stroke used the BCI to control muscle stimulation with their brain signals. The study measured improvements in arm movement and brain changes over about 4 months.
